beginners-assistance

[bold kernel]

ight

[shell kindle]

Yeah fair but i want to say you should probably not store the barter/hideout med stuff in your medcase lol

[sullen galleon]

Therapist gives it back faster for more money. Pretty sure skier does the same but a little bit slower than therapist

[austere hound]

That's the only difference though?

[shell kindle]

Yeah what else could it be

[sullen galleon]

i think therapist is like 10 - 24 hours while prapor does 12 - 36

yea thats the only difference

[dusky geyser]

wait, skier can insure shit?

[austere hound]

Idk I was confused as fuck as to why her return time says "unknown." Is it based on rep or something?

Return rate I mean

[celest sage]

Therapist holds you stuff for way longer

[sullen galleon]

nah mb, i thought of repairing clothes

[violet light]

Intel level 3 reduces it by 30% iirc

[bold kernel]

should i go into a raid with my best guns

or with guns i can lose

[sullen galleon]

if your really confident that you wont die go with your best guns

but if your not go with ones you can lose

[vapid flume]

Whats up with scav matchin

[bold kernel]

should i gear fear

ok so i go into raid with my best guns?

yeah

true

[sullen galleon]

in tarkov

you win some, you lose alot

[bold kernel]

oh lol

im solo

[sullen galleon]

what map are u going?

[bold kernel]

lighthouse factory or customs

recently i kina go only lighthouse

[sullen galleon]

which one are you most familar with

[bold kernel]

Go solo to try to get 12k/square, then buy a 200k gun to lose solo like a man.

[bold kernel]

none actually

[sullen galleon]

jesus

[bold kernel]

lighthouse is easy to learn so i would say lighthouse

[sullen galleon]

i'd say lighthouse cause that place got hella loot

if you know where to look thatis

[bold kernel]

yes

i look at uh

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/images/1/13/Jindouz_Lighthouse_Map_V1.png/revision/latest?cb=20211226164031

[bold kernel]

[bold kernel]

yes

[buoyant swift]

anyone know a good spot for matches?

[bold kernel]

i can vc

[austere hound]

Technical supply crates & jackets are decent

[buoyant swift]

thank you

[remote kettle]

guys i have acquired game breaking information. the m9 reload is wrong

[violet crystal]

me too pls

[violet light]

good to go for what

depends on what you like. If you want to wander around in confusion and fear woods is good. Any moment you could be sniped

[shell kindle]

Woods

[violet light]

for extra juice try it at night 😉

[vapid flume]

Constantly getting killed by player scavs as a scav

getting really annoying

[shell kindle]

I have not had that experience but I also only scav on like interchange/woods/customs

Not worth the loss in rep to kill there lol

[vapid flume]

Ive been killed twice in a row now by player scavs once on interchange too

[shell kindle]

Oh twice lol I thought it’s like 5-10 times

[vapid flume]

Ive been killed over 100 times by player scavs but just today I was killed twice

[violet light]

woah... player scavs must love hunting you

[vapid flume]

Yep

[violet light]

try running PMC. you can kill player scavs without a karma hit haha

[vapid flume]

I run pmc alot more than I do scav but pmc I just die most of the time to some sniper or guy I cant even see

[violet light]

what helped me on that was to learn the common sniping spots on each map, check out the sight lines, and then just avoid those areas

[orchid mica]

Doing some quests, im fairly new could use some help if anyones free. DM me 21+

[violet light]

before I knew shoreline or woods adequately that happened a lot. If you know there are possibly snipers in a handful of different locations you can play around it

[crude widget]

is no one selling item cases? They're locked behind therapist for me 😦

is it possible to find them in a raid?

[vapid flume]

Generally just cant sell them,

[blazing brook]

just made 1 mil from a shoreline run, which is very good for my standards lol

everything apart from the insured is stuff which wasnt already mine lol

[violet light]

hit the resort or just lucky on the perimeter?

[blazing brook]

killed 1 guy and hit half of resort

the guy is who i got the gun and helmet off

[violet light]

noice. Resort is solid if it's not too contested

[blazing brook]

i mean it was contested but i killed him 😎

ayyyy

[copper sphinx]

Just reached 13 mil in the stash

[blazing brook]

HOLY SHIT

[copper sphinx]

Nice

[blazing brook]

I DONT KNOW WHAT THE PURPLE KEY DOES BUT IT LOOKS GOOD

[copper sphinx]

I will google for u

Bro thats the tera groups aresnal key

[blazing brook]

AAAAAAAAAAAA

[copper sphinx]

Thats mad

Put in ur little container and run

[blazing brook]

im scav

[vapid flume]

only goes for 20k

Other 2 are good though

[blazing brook]

i spawned with them

[copper sphinx]

Uh oh

Thats mad

[copper sphinx]

Whats the other one do

[vapid flume]

The RB-VO?

[violet light]

just hightail it to extract and forget about looting

[vapid flume]

If you is talking about rb-vo it goes to a marked room near Train station on reserve that spawns mediocre loot unless you get luckty

[copper sphinx]

Damm

[blazing brook]

I got extract camped

[copper sphinx]

Reserve

Oh

[vapid flume]

reserve is great

[copper sphinx]

Its my favourite

[vapid flume]

Shoreline is my personal fav

[blazing brook]

fml man

[copper sphinx]

Because i dont get bum fidled when scaving

[blazing brook]

he just got the best scav kill of his life

[copper sphinx]

He prob wont loot it

Hopefully

Nvm it was me

[spring spear]

Anyone experienced and NA?

[blazing brook]

oh they arent actually that valuable apart from the card

[vapid flume]

No the labs card is the best but the other 2 are just nice to have**

[copper sphinx]

What map were u on

[vapid flume]

DId you just extract camp this mf

[copper sphinx]

Just messing

Or am i

[vapid flume]

I could tell by the backdrop it wasnt your image

[copper sphinx]

Ye

[vapid flume]

imagine though

[copper sphinx]

I always die with the labs cards

[vapid flume]

Only sometimes for me one time I broke both my legs and died because of out of time

[copper sphinx]

Nah i got a better one

I blew myself up with my own grenade

[vapid flume]

m

How do you manage to do thart

[copper sphinx]

Is apecial and new

So close

[rigid light]

is lvl 5 armor and lvl 4 helmet good enough for labs

the question is purely hypothetical

[vapid flume]

SAme here for me but im getting close to 29 instead

[copper sphinx]

I go naked so yeah

I just run around and be a goblin

[vapid flume]

Only thing on labs that wont go straight through is taiders

[rigid light]

oof

[vapid flume]

Unless you get a pmc that dont come geared

[rigid light]

on labs? sounds impossible

[vapid flume]

labs for me isnt even worth it

[sleek pollen]

if u dont got the nice keys it aint worth

[copper sphinx]

Damm

I aint got those

[vapid flume]

I ran a meta mk and loads of gear and me and my mate died to a cheater the moment we got in

[copper sphinx]

But i do got my guns i never usr

[whole thistle]

running actual kits on labs smh

[copper sphinx]

Yeah

Thats what im saying

[rigid light]

man factory is fun if you don't care about dying

[copper sphinx]

Yes it is

[rigid light]

got like 4-5 kills with the supressed kedr

[copper sphinx]

I struggle with the fact i have no mic

[sleek pollen]

i just go to labs with a semi shotty and flechette/ap20

[whole thistle]

no teammates? (awesome megamind pic)

[copper sphinx]

Omg i have something that i have saved for ages for this one moment

My dog

[rancid sparrow]

are there any good discord servers where you can ask for people to help with quests?

[copper sphinx]

No nobody will actually help you they jyst redirect u to the wiki 👍

[rancid sparrow]

oh

[violet light]

yeah go to the Sherpa discord

[limber notch]

why does the link get deleted?

its not even my discord, its official and shared in this discord...

[frail anvil]

Your best choice would be to either join sherpa discord and they could help you or you can join couple of others streamers discord that conduct tarkov content on their channels like pihranna for example

[vapid flume]

pirhana

[rigid light]

what the fuck is a nape

[violet light]

https://preview.redd.it/dcszj2e6sdy61.gif?format=mp4&s=347c8f0e2eaf90e0b3e69820d1ea61dc895d7fec

[rigid light]

fuckin' great

i thought i got away from sniper when i went inside interchange

but apparently they also snipe inside

[crude widget]

was questing and found some good loot for once, and server connection lost 😦

[rigid light]

fuck me i just need to check out the clothing stores

[vast temple]

is kite useful? I always get it and I need eagle 😭

[rigid light]

you can make magnum shells with it, they're tons of fun

[vast temple]

Ima just sell them for now xD

[rigid light]

i guess

[rigid light]

but them and double barrell are fun

[vast temple]

I don't got level 2 workbench yet

[violet light]

then you'll need to loot it in raid.

[vast temple]

I'm trying to get a level one but I don't know how to get the leatherman

[violet light]

you can buy that from mechanic. It's 15K rubles

[vast temple]

Yeah I've been doing buried barrel caches and I've only found one. I just went on a shoreline run for stashes and found 4 kite instead

[steel oxide]

is this a raider or scav

[elfin gale]

almost looks like Gluhar

[steel oxide]

I saw them move to the train and they ignored me

so maybe?

[limber notch]

Since when do raiders spawn here?

[quiet kraken]

how bad are the level 4 ceramic armors

and why

[limber notch]

bad repaibility and overpriced

they are meh

better off using a rat rig

[quiet kraken]

what about usec trooper

[violet light]

one of the best level 4 armors

[elfin gale]

better than a ceramic one for reparability for sure

[limber notch]

usec is good

[frail anvil]

Usec is also fucking expensive

[limber notch]

yeah

Its 100k

if you get one found in raid sell it on flea

[limber notch]

since when pls?

[violet light]

take a look at this chart for effective durability to figure out which one is best. Then factor in how much you care about repairability https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jTXbUVxwdX1gjAxsdKCkdrt4rgLcT30WMB5ju7CtDCk/edit#gid=0

[limber notch]

I got shit on because of the bad spawn

This isnt the bunker

[quiet kraken]

a sad story

[frail anvil]

You reserving?

[limber notch]

yeah

that is basement of school

[frail anvil]

You probs spawned underground

That looks to me like those fucking upper ground looking bunkers

[limber notch]

under black bishop

[frail anvil]

The one you need to flip the switch for and then alarm goes off

[limber notch]

under drop down room basically

nah

[frail anvil]

Oh then you are near

[elfin gale]

shadow are you sure it wasn't Glukhar's guards ? I know they go there sometimes

[limber notch]

gluhar wasnt in school

becuase I went into the building

It might have been idk

my mind is blown

[elfin gale]

do you have the name of the guy that killed you ?

[limber notch]

yeah

[elfin gale]

what is it

[elfin gale]

that's a guard

[limber notch]

fml

im so shit

[frail anvil]

!wiki glukhar

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Glukhar

Glukhar is a Scav Boss in Escape from Tarkov.

[vagrant cargo]

lvl 5 face with lvl 4 body

[limber notch]

tnx but ik about gluhar

[steel oxide]

Is it even possible to sneak up on guards

[quiet kraken]

that was my friend

[limber notch]

yeah

[steel oxide]

seems like they insta spot you

[limber notch]

I looted half that room before he spoke

[vagrant cargo]

weird

[limber notch]

and then insta tapped me

anyone got good post fx for me not to be blind pls

[violet light]

go into your nvidia/amd control panel and adjust the settings until you can see clearly in dark/light conditions

[frail anvil]

I was checking guard names actually

[limber notch]

ah

well thats a good idea

ill check that too

[elfin gale]

go in an offline and place yourself somewhere where you can see both inside and outside of a building and adjust your postfx for your liking

[frail anvil]

I can give you mine if you want

[violet light]

i couldn't see crap in the dark until I fiddled with these. Thought I was blind without a flashlight lol

[quiet kraken]

does .366 eko shoot high

[frail anvil]

Its a slow bullet

[limber notch]

no post fx?

[quiet kraken]

no it's fastest .366

[limber notch]

Can I give them a look pls?

[violet light]

post fx helps a bit

[frail anvil]

Let me get to my pc and Ill ss it

[limber notch]

if its a problem then its fine

[violet light]

yes

[limber notch]

dont wanna trouble you

[frail anvil]

Nah nah nah I just got home from work just gimme a sec

[violet light]

compare the bullet velocity with the baseline velocity (usually it's the default ammo that comes with the gun which is what is used to zero it) and you can check whether it tends to shoot high or low

[quiet kraken]

higher = shoots higher and lower speed = shoots lower yeah

[violet light]

SuperFormance tends to shoot high for shotties for example

[frail anvil]

Look at the gun you wanna load with and whats it velocity then look at the velocity of the bullet

[quiet kraken]

do i just zero it a little bit higher than the wanted distance then?

wait no

lower

[outer dome]

just looted this on a raid, not super good but it was one a of a few raids that i safely got out as a pmc

[limber notch]

nice ump

[quiet kraken]

what a bizzare ak

[limber notch]

oh wait the ump is yours

lol

[outer dome]

yeah, they were a duo

i looted them and got out

[limber notch]

oh wait nice pfp too

[outer dome]

ty the god himself

[crude widget]

How much rep do I lose from removing an item listed on flea market? Also is it a different amount if you have multiple items but recall the only one left?

[limber notch]

Mine is better 😉

[violet light]

It's the same formula as selling something on the flea but in reverse. For each 500K rubles you get .1 rep. For each 500K you remove it's the same, if I remember correctly

[outer dome]

haha obviously, you got the drip

[limber notch]

Yeah, Drip Armin chilling

[frail anvil]

post fx and then i change gamma on my monitor from 1.00 to 1.20

[limber notch]

tnx Ill give this a try later, gonna calm down a bit

[violet light]

you can also change up the colorblind modes to make people stand out more on greens like grasses

[serene reef]

fps optimized

luma adaptive and clarity tank (not much) some fps

mine's not too good or anything but works just fine for me

although i was lately looking to improve mine because yes

also for dark corners

people have special settings

they change them if they are gonna use NVGs or if they are gonna go into dark places

if you go interchange there was that blue ish filter thing

[serene reef]

this might be it

[frail anvil]

this was specifically made for all surfaces

also tritanopia helps me focus that may not be for all

[whole thistle]

0.01 per 50k

[serene reef]

Its not worth imo to even try flea unless someone can confirm for me as well that they changed it

how much money in rep did you need?

to get 3 items?

like 150mil ?

[whole thistle]

yeah

[violet light]

anyone else having issues with Nvidia Shadowplay for video recordings? I like to watch my kills/deaths to see how I can improve and after the recent update from BSG the video stopped working

[celest marlin]

im assuming FLIR doesnt work alongside GPNVG goggles?

[left summit]

why this get sold in € on flea ?

[minor rune]

Can someone help me or give me 5 bear dog tags lvl 15 or help me get them.. I really need them for gunsmith part 5 to progress my lvl to get mechanic 3 and jaegar 3

[inland marlin]

because euros are useful

[inland marlin]

thats right

[left summit]

actually what can i do with euros i have over 4000 but dont know what to do with them @inland marlin

[swift cove]

you need them for task

[inland marlin]

stash upgrades and quest stuff

[limber notch]

ive heard its bugged rn

[trim stone]

By the time you get elite endurance, elite strength comes quicker after that, but for the rest, whether its worth it, is up to how bad you want them at elite

[dense hawk]

anyone happen to know how much health a rogue has?

wonderful, just did 516 to one center mass and he one taps me in the face

[upper garden]

anyone wanna go for gas analyzers in interchange w me ive died like 20 times now

[golden hinge]

they shoulda added another 7 to their hp

[dense hawk]

lol he prolly got banned

was stupidity

[shell kindle]

Go scav

[upper garden]

i die even then to players

[shell kindle]

Must be unlucky then, there’s rarely any players when I spawn

Where do you go?

[whole crest]

You think I would get banned

[crisp jackal]

does anyone wanna kill all the rogues for me so i can get 2 task done please

[whole crest]

If I in game trade my friend for red card

[crisp jackal]

no

u wont

[proven juniper]

For supply plans should i had it to skier or therapists

[whole crest]

Even for millions of roubles?

Like I give him like 38 mil worth of items

[shell kindle]

No

[golden hinge]

you would get flagged

most definitely

[whole crest]

Hm

Yea

Cuz he can’t list red for roubles bc of how big the fee is

[golden hinge]

just sell it for like 15-20m and take the 5-10mil fee. honestly at that amount of rubles, you can pretty much never run out

unless you are crazy

just know its against the rules to overall discuss a trading transaction on the official discords

cuz they don't support it

[whole crest]

Oh rly?

[golden hinge]

yeh

[whole crest]

Whoopi we

[golden hinge]

u won't get in trouble for it, unless u like kept doing it even after the mods asked ut o stop

[whole crest]

Is there a reason to why?

[left summit]

is there a container for weapon parts ?

[golden hinge]

cuz bsg is against RMT and in game trading is a major influencer on making it possible

so to avoid all complications its better to just not allow it in general on the discords

at least thats what i think, idk for sure

[whole crest]

I see rmt being a problem

But what about just trying to avoid the big fee

[golden hinge]

weapons case, thiccitems/items

[whole crest]

Because I’m sure u can’t even list it below 10 mil

[golden hinge]

at your own risk of being flagged

u can list it at any price

or do u meant fee below 10 mil?

idk, its been a while since i had a red card

[whole crest]

Yea just looking

[golden hinge]

if it was me i'd sell for 20mil

just to lower the fee

[whole crest]

Yea the on lit way to avoid a big fee is through barter trades

[golden hinge]

mhmm

thats on purpose too

[whole crest]

Which are kinda ridiculous

[golden hinge]

you can list it up for something you want

[whole crest]

oh it’s on purpose?

[golden hinge]

yes, they want high value item sto be traded main through barters instead of simply high rubles to simulate a specific type of econmy they think is healthy for tarkov

that swhy keys and keycards have generally low trader value costs

so they have high fees to have high trades for rubles on flea

but, since they are of similar value to the traders, theres almos tno fee trading keys for keys

[whole crest]

Mhm

[golden hinge]

i traded my last black keycard for a merin/dormsmarked/rbst key

cuz idc about labs and just wanted some other keys i might actually use

[whole crest]

Yea ik just looking around and don’t wanna get banned for sometihing I can avoid

[golden hinge]

most of the barters up are scams/troll offers

you can probably put up red for some pretty valuable keys and some1 who has them all fir will see it and buy it

and if it doesn't cost much to put it up for like 5 rare keys that cost a lot each

theres no big loss if no1 takes it

[whole crest]

That really makes ur hard for me to get HAHA

it

[golden hinge]

yea

red labs keycard isn't that great anyways

its not worth the cost

[whole crest]

Def not

[golden hinge]

its nice to have if ur rich though

[whole crest]

But it’s cool to have

[golden hinge]

yeh

[whole crest]

I got all the roubles but none of the barters DAMN

[golden hinge]

:P

any time it goes up for rubles, i bet bots insta buy iut

[whole crest]

I saw it

For one second for 35 mil

Gone

And keycard hunting is too hard

[golden hinge]

yeh

depends on the settings, but having your teammates pov is super helpful if you are new to the game

[whole crest]

Yes

Because of that

[dull thorn]

second monitor

[golden hinge]

another monitor

[whole thistle]

I use it after I die to help my teammates

[torn copper]

any expert modder who can help me optimize my 4 DMRs?

[whole thistle]

#weapon-modding

Just post pics of them and ask what to improve @torn copper

[torn copper]

🤗

[haughty ocean]

are there no Armor Piercing 9x19 Para you can buy off traders?

[dull thorn]

nope

[dull thorn]

peacekeeper lvl 3 sells .45 acp AP though

[haughty ocean]

damn that kinda sucks

at least I can still run RIP Ammo lol

[dull thorn]

leg meta ftw

[haughty ocean]

hell yeah

[regal imp]

Whats the best way to level vitality?

[loud gulch]

Trying to figure out what went wrong on my ADAR. To install the foregrip I had to remove the front sight. Now my upper and barrel are red.

[whole thorn]

you need a gas block

[drifting summit]

you need a gasblock

oh

lamo

[whole thorn]

hah lmao

[loud gulch]

copy thanks

[drifting summit]

low profile gas block works

from peace keeper

[whole thorn]

mk12 low profile from mechanic i think

[whole thistle]

Bofa

[drifting summit]

that aswell works

these nuts

[loud gulch]

Squared away, thanks!

[whole thorn]

but also, buy a new adar upper from skier, that durability is a little low

the upper is only like 8k, worth it for malfunctions and such

[loud gulch]

Just repaired it too, that's what I get for tinkering with battlefield souveniers

[whole thorn]

that's how it goes lol, yeah the receiver will get you to 100%

[spice gate]

yo could anyone do me a favor that has max level jaeger

[loud gulch]

Usually my PMC goes with whatever my Scav managed to survive with, and that lasts about 2 minutes before I get smoked, so living long enough with the same weapon to mod it is a new experience for me

[whole thorn]

i get that, i'm not great either but i found that survive a lot more if i sit in a bush for the 5-8 while everyone kills each other

[lament crane]

theres a specific key to examinate items?

[golden hinge]

center mouse button

[dull thorn]

click mousewheel

[lament crane]

ok

ty

[loud gulch]

Good idea. I get in very long firefights with the lamest of scavs (which I lose 9 out of 10 times) so maybe I should try laying low too

[whole thorn]

and whatever map you play on make sure to know the extracts and have a loose plan. i keep a map on my second monitor but a phone works too

[loud gulch]

I have a decent idea about Woods, and the compass has helped a lot. Customs I usually don't survive long enough where orientation matters much. I use a tablet, but the screen tends to go black at exactly the wrong time.

[shell kindle]

Gotta change your phone power settings to leave the screen on

[charred axle]

why does the game kick me when i finish to mod the gun for gunsmith part 10

[brittle canyon]

skill issue

[whole thorn]

woods is usually pretty chill, customs I where i would highly recommend sitting in a bush for 8 minutes. That map has a lot of pvp early on

[charred axle]

nvm finally worked

[shrewd bane]

are there any maps that are very good for beginners and decently easy to learn?

[dull thorn]

woods

[shrewd bane]

if woods is easy to learn i have no chance kek

[finite terrace]

what is that door in factory? i swear i've seen it open before

next to forklift area

[bold kernel]

taggy can open

[dull thorn]

if u just want to learn a map shoreline is one of the easiest to learn since its pretty much a rectangle and has distinct landmarks

[limber notch]

How do the bunker raiders in reserve work?

[brittle canyon]

they work

[limber notch]

3 have a chance of spawning at the start

[shrewd bane]

ill try that then thanks

[limber notch]

and then pulling the lever has a chance of spawning 3 more?

[dull thorn]

np, good luck

[brittle canyon]

only the first lever pull has a chance to spawn

idk if they spawn at the start of the raid

[limber notch]

you can only pull lever once

the d2 lever I mean

[brittle canyon]

d2 lever spawns d2 raiders…

[limber notch]

yeah

thats what im talking about

3 can spawn in bunker

[brittle canyon]

hermetic lever spawns hermetic

[teal trail]

it can be 3 to 5

[limber notch]

bunker = office room

[limber notch]

natural spawn or lever?

[teal trail]

both

[limber notch]

ah ok tnx

[pure mist]

it can be 3 already there

[limber notch]

so if only 1 is seen the rest are somewhere?

[teal trail]

ive made it a shitshow with raiders by getting like 7 in there at once

[teal trail]

yea or dead

[pure mist]

typically yes

[teal trail]

nade them to get them to move

[pure mist]

what's real nice is finding 3 off spawn and spawned 3 more with the switch

[limber notch]

ok tnx

[keen breach]

Should I do farming part 4 or just sell the GPU(s)

[loud portal]

how can i get a gun to hve more sighting range

[keen breach]

add a scope

[loud portal]

yeah didnt realize the mp5 sight was off for the gunsmith quest

[vagrant cargo]

just had my first friendly experience in a while

[loud portal]

is there a better rig than the azimut for storing stuff

[tacit ferry]

is this worth

[rotund heron]

YES

[rain wing]

yes lol

[celest sage]

If you play customs yes if you don’t then it’s your choice

[hazy veldt]

25k xp is 25k xp.

[rain wing]

also couch backpack

[loud portal]

does this count armored rigs?

[hazy veldt]

yes, except mmac

and maybe strandhogg

[loud gulch]

I'll try that next time, thanks!

[brittle canyon]

when will they learn to add new stuff to the quests

[tepid gulch]

hey im kind of new I have standard edition any tips on how to level up fast i can hardly do one match by my self XD

[brittle canyon]

and survive

[tepid gulch]

ok

[brittle canyon]

baby steps are fine

[tepid gulch]

ok danke XD

[trim stone]

Don't be shy to use scav to learn maps before running pmc on it

[tepid gulch]

ok danke (:

[orchid salmon]

@spark plover

[tepid gulch]

any tips on what cheap gun I should use?

[trim stone]

Bring armor and sniper, drop armor, shoot scav, grab armor. E c p c

[loud portal]

pro strats

[zinc marlin]

Sks is a nice all arounder with reasonable ammo

[tepid gulch]

ok danke

[zinc marlin]

Gerne

[bold kernel]

when i load my mag with ammo and put it in the gun , the gun turn into red and i am not able to shoot , can someone help ?

[torn copper]

is this a good handguard for a 200k ish HK or should i upgrade to a better one

[zinc marlin]

Youve loaded wrong caliber. Some mags will work with Differenz cals, but weapons work only with 1

[trim stone]

Wrong ammo can still fit in some mags. Empty the mag and check the ammo type vs your gun

[bold kernel]

thank you , how to make sure about the right ammo for the gun

[trim stone]

And dont forget to empty the gun chamber too

[loud portal]

what happens if u dont

[zinc marlin]

In the info window(ergo,reciol etc)

[bold kernel]

thank you very much 🙂

[trim stone]

Then mag will have good bullets but still cant fire because gun has 1 bad bullet chambered

[tacit ferry]

whys his name blue?

[zinc marlin]

Blue?

[tacit ferry]

im colorblind

[zinc marlin]

Oh ok. He is an Emissarie afaik

[rain wing]

emissary

[tacit ferry]

is it like higher than eod?

[rain wing]

this thing worth anything?

[zinc marlin]

Lol yeah

[rain wing]

not a paid rank per se

[tacit ferry]

ohhh

[rain wing]

yeah

[zinc marlin]

Its a community role

[rain wing]

I forgot the specifics

but

[rain wing]

^

[zinc marlin]

Is bad, dump it

[rain wing]

aight

I got it from my scavs ak lol

[zinc marlin]

Awful red dot (10moa or something)

Not even kidding

[sour chasm]

better than ironsights imo

[zinc marlin]

Disagree

For a saiga 12 maybe

[bold kernel]

What happens when I insure 1 or more of my items and is it worth the money

[zinc marlin]

You will get them back if they wont be picked up by other pmc/Player scav in about 27+ hours

[sour chasm]

always worth

[sour chasm]

there is no limit to number of items you can insure

[bold kernel]

How does it work, when I die what happens

[zinc marlin]

Read above

[sour chasm]

game waits for raid to end, if your gear 'went MIA' = 'stayed in raid' you will get it back after a day or two

[bold kernel]

Alright thanks

[topaz violet]

hey guys im trying to find an upgrade to the armor rigs that i been using, so far i been using the MMAC, is there like another tier 4 or a tier 5 rig thats just as good on a budget now that i have ragman lvl 3

[zinc marlin]

Tv110 but you have to be lvl42+

[tacit ferry]

pmcs reload mags so slow

[zinc marlin]

With ragman 3 you can barter M2, but its too expensive imo@topaz violet

Better than mmac tho

[rain wing]

worth keeping?

[zinc marlin]

Bottom one yes

[rain wing]

top sell?

[bold kernel]

Can the Grenade blast through walls ?

[zinc marlin]

No

[rain wing]

no

anything I should keep/sell?

[zinc marlin]

Youll need the ah1f for a quest

Quite rare stim

[rain wing]

aight

wb the rest?

[zinc marlin]

Sell the left and use/sell the right one too

Etg is like propital but better

[rain wing]

propital?

oh

ohh

aight aight

these things go for quite a lot lol

[zinc marlin]

Yep

[rain wing]

😳

[celest marlin]

not even going to lie about it, this is posterity and bragging

im proud of it, my first wipe ever, never thought id ever be able to even escape raids lul

[zinc marlin]

This is beginners assistance bro

[celest marlin]

im still a beginnner xd

[zinc marlin]

Nice rmt fella

Shame you cant report here

[bold kernel]

I would kms if I ever had an awol I either die or see it thru 👿

[normal ermine]

fr

[zinc marlin]

Yeah

[normal ermine]

I've been disconnected from so many raids, but I always join back asap

one time I came back to a massacre of scavs lol

just dead bodies all around me

[pliant sail]

are M80 7.62 rounds good because I hear people talk about them a lot

[celest marlin]

who is rmting?

[normal ermine]

I believe so, I can check damage charts afterwards

[celest marlin]

think you can report it here

[zinc marlin]

You are

[pliant sail]

i checked and they seem pretty average

[celest marlin]

lmao what?

[finite terrace]

igolnik best 545 ammo?

[zinc marlin]

Arguable

[finite terrace]

or should i go something else that can 2 tap a thorax

[zinc marlin]

BS 545x39

[loud portal]

is there a website i can go to for gun builds or do i just slap whatever on something

[celest marlin]

imagine being salty after seeing good stats so much that you have to accuse rmting ahahaha

[zinc marlin]

Its not good stats come on

You are just being dumb posting it

[celest marlin]

well they arent bad, i still dont understand what prompts you to accuse rmting

literally prefaced it with the admission that it is indeed me trying to show off, let me be happy with the progress ive made on my first wipe

[celest marlin]

SNB with svd is a good choice

or M61 in any 7.62x51 weapon if you can get it/craft it

[zinc marlin]

Is there multiple?

I mean you use a silencer or you dont

Thats all you can choose from

[celest marlin]

vudu, razor hd, or if you need cheap go tac30 or valday

[zinc marlin]

Personal preferrence

[torn copper]

does shooting range in hideout take ammo?

[elfin gale]

I use the tac30 but scopes are personal preference

[zinc marlin]

No

[torn copper]

google told me it did wtf 😄

[vagrant cargo]

i killed a scav who wiggled i feel so bad

[zinc marlin]

It doesnt change the state of weapon by any means. Neither fire mode or ammo or tactical block setting

[elfin gale]

why 1x-3x ? the only I can think of is the hybrid HHS-1

tac is 1x-4x tho, which is pretty close

[wicked quiver]

is this the chat where i can ask if anyone has dorm 314 that can open it up for me for task?

[bold kernel]

how do i tell the difference between a player pmc and a player scav

[torn copper]

how to unbind a command?

[bold kernel]

ai scavs or scavs in general shout at you before firing

[elfin gale]

clothing mostly, gearing and playstyle might be of help too. But if you're trying to get high karma I just wouldn't shoot unless 100%

[bold kernel]

Im assuming scavs have civillian like clothes and PMCs have like military camo?

[normal ermine]

scavs usually look really, really weird.

like some are wearing some bright red and white clothes, while others might be and some military camo vest

[elfin gale]

most of the time yeah, but you can encounter some scavs with a specific camo-ish vest

[normal ermine]

you can usually tell when they speak, and if you spam lean they will do it back

[bold kernel]

Alright, thanks!

[dusky lodge]

Is there a way to get a map that actually marks where I am?

[normal ermine]

no, but I would use mapgenie maps to help pinpoint your location, just use landmarks.

its really not that bad imo

[long crystal]

Are there any preexisting routes that I can run on Reserve for Intel folders? Desperately need one for intelligence center lv 1

Only level 7

[viscid kraken]

how good is this scope?

[normal ermine]

good enough to sell

[idle fog]

best way to put it

[viscid kraken]

[normal ermine]

my rule is: if its not a scope for a rifle, sell it. I don't keep sniper scopes, mostly bc they alone are worth more than most weapons in my inv lol

[elfin gale]

just spam crackhouse (on Customs), they spawn upstairs in the library

[teal trail]

That ain’t a good mentality for it

[normal ermine]

I don't use big rifles and I only really play factory

🤷‍♂️

never needed a big ass scope on woods either, just don't get sniped.

[teal trail]

Ones like the vudu and tac 30 are good to keep around with a mount that allows you to have deltapoints

[idle fog]

razor too but more money

[long crystal]

Been trying that

Never seen one

Or I get killed inside

[teal trail]

I love the razor but it’s like 70k

[elfin gale]

you prob missed it, they blend it well sometimes, and yeah if you spawn there you can't stay for too long as you will most likely have somebody pushing it

[teal trail]

Do you have flea?

[whole crest]

what doe sthis mean

[long crystal]

Level 7

[idle fog]

right vudu has been the go to

[teal trail]

Sm1 bought something from that list already

[long crystal]

I check pretty thoroughly, been researching the spawns and I check every shelf, on the floor and behind the desk

[whole crest]

oh

[long crystal]

All I ever find are psu and little ammo boxes

[torn copper]

opinions? my first build

[teal trail]

Is aight, do you have flea?

[whole crest]

but its trader

hm

[teal trail]

Somethings sold out then

[long crystal]

Since reserve has like 45 Intel spawns id rather just canvas the place

I just need one

[elfin gale]

would keep trying, but if you think you have a better chance on Reserve, just lookup a guide and go for it

[teal trail]

Only in key rooms

[long crystal]

They're exclusively behind key doors?

:(

[teal trail]

I don’t think there’s any not behind a door on reserve tbh you shouldn’t focus intel center at such a low level

[elfin gale]

they have a very small chance of spawning in the bunker underground tho, on the desks near d2 lever but you're prob better off going crackhouse

[long crystal]

I love scavving is the issue

Pmc is too scary

[teal trail]

I’ve done over 60 runs in bunker and never seen one there, mad rare

[elfin gale]

hence why I recommend crackhouse

[teal trail]

Tbh ur not losing anything it’s just a game

[halcyon spire]

my prapor messages

[viscid kraken]

main reason I have 3.9 fence karma

[elfin gale]

ok ?

[long crystal]

I used to not even be able to do runs by myself I was so afraid when my friend dragged me into this game

Now I run customs solo ez so I'm making progress

Just wish I had more confidence in engaging players

[vagrant cargo]

rogues are so op if you dont just cheese them

[elfin gale]

learn the guns/your builds, learn the maps and everything will be alright

[viscid kraken]

to use hermetic exit as scav does power have to be on?

[long crystal]

Yeah I'm looking forward to getting ap20

[teal trail]

Yea

I don’t think scavs have hermetic door

[viscid kraken]

no the bunker one down below

[elfin gale]

d2 ? yes it has to be on but you can't extract there

[long crystal]

The gun I want to use the most is ironically the Ash-12

[teal trail]

Scavs don’t have D2 either

[long crystal]

Does it actually suck as bad as people say it does

[teal trail]

Ash-12 is fun

[viscid kraken]

not d2, it's down in the bunkers area that looks like a giant garage

[teal trail]

Never let me down some of the most fun I’ve had

[elfin gale]

hermetic isn't down in the bunkers, it's in a bunker but it's next to the trains

[long crystal]

I keep any ASH parts I come across to one day use

I have a compensator and 24 of the good ammo

[viscid kraken]

yeah I totally forgot the extract name, does it need power to exfil as scav?

[elfin gale]

yes

[teal trail]

Tbh you don’t need to, all you need to keep is a foregrip and a sight for it

[daring badge]

Man, I was skaving, and literally had a PMC in my sights, ready for a headshot... but I hesistated because I still can't tell them apart from other player skavs, so I got one tapped. How do you get over the potential skav respect loss?

[elfin gale]

you don't ?

[long crystal]

Probably easier once you have more of a reserve of rep with fence

[elfin gale]

not if you're going for high rep that is

[long crystal]

I really need to do my 3 of each car extract

[daring badge]

The whole Scav rep thing throws me off so hard because like- As a PMC, im free to shoot everyone. but as a skav? how do I both manage to recognize a target at the the same time as i decide to shoot it?

[halcyon spire]

for me brightly colored ppl are scav sometimes that isnt true though if u have time watch their movement

thats better

[loud portal]

why cant i fold a stock on this gun

[teal trail]

Tbh 70% of scav runs you’ll mostly see other scavs, you’ll learn the difference eventually

[elfin gale]

not all weapons have foldable stocks

[halcyon spire]

it might not have a fold stock

[daring badge]

I meant like- for my example. I was in position to predict movement and pull off a great headshot. but since I could only see the guys head, I hesistated.

[loud portal]

gunsmith part 2 aks wont fold

[teal trail]

Is what it is, gear difference and clothes

[daring badge]

I just find it kind of strange that like- there's no "gimmie" in a sense with the scav rep system.

[elfin gale]

do you have a pad on the stock

[daring badge]

It seems like a pretty simple solution to scav on scav violence would be hefty penalities for raiding another skav's body if your the killer.

[loud portal]

i dont think so

[long crystal]

Does scav karma affect you on a sliding scale or do you only get increased benefits by hitting the rank breakpoint

[daring badge]

rather than punishing new players and misfires harder than the game already does

[long crystal]

Like 1.95 vs having 2.00

[sterile minnow]

ngl customs night time scav runs are something else, what the hell happend

[long crystal]

A party

[viscid kraken]

is d-2 camping really that bad when playing PMC?

[long crystal]

How do you do nighttime customs as a scav

[teal trail]

Idk I’m the one doing it but I’ve personally been camped there only a handful of times

[sterile minnow]

saw 2 boys dead by crackedhouse stairs, killed by "banditnr1"

[long crystal]

The pmcs will tear you up with NVGs

[viscid kraken]

how often do you run into pmc's when camping?

[sterile minnow]

pmcs are usually on dorms or checking cultists at night customs, didnt hear a footstep from old gas to railroad to tarkov this run

[minor rune]

Is 5.45 x39 BP propor lvl 3?

[teal trail]

2 solos/groups a raid for the most part

[sterile minnow]

or a shot for that matter

[long crystal]

Damn

Nice run

[teal trail]

Sometimes none at all

[viscid kraken]

where do you think the best camping spots are?

[teal trail]

Idk there’s a bunch

All on preference

[loud portal]

best trade to get money on skier?

[sterile minnow]

10/10 would recommend
got to loot some cultists the previous game, not that the guy left much for me

[dense hawk]

exchange money with him

[loud portal]

like sell money to him?

[dense hawk]

buy euros from him

[loud portal]

hes ll1

[smoky moth]

sell weapon mods you find in raid to him

[sterile minnow]

dont forget to do his tasks

[vagrant cargo]

@sterile minnow boy I keep dying when going in with gear

[young goblet]

how viable is ap-20 like i spent 4 minutes trying to kill a non moving sniper scav and i couldnt

[vagrant cargo]

Shotguns are smoothbore weapons

[dense hawk]

its no the ammo

[vagrant cargo]

Not the most accurate even wit slugs

[viscid kraken]

shotgunscav would like a word with you

[sterile minnow]

same

thats why I run t4 armor with ump

[vagrant cargo]

That’s just accuracy through volume of fire with buck

[sterile minnow]

then I dont even hear a shot on the map

[vagrant cargo]

Tbh I’m still making profit despite the loads of deaths I get

[teal trail]

I got a shooter born with ap20

[young goblet]

i know shotguns arnt rifled but i assumed the +80% made a difference

[sterile minnow]

how much so far?

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah but it’s not SUPER reliable

[vagrant cargo]

21mil

Would’ve gone better if I didn’t die 20 times in a row

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[vagrant cargo]

Plus I’m actually buying good guns now

[minor rune]

Ok no quest need right

[vagrant cargo]

I still miss my scar h

[whole thistle]

Idk check the wiki

[vagrant cargo]

I had modded it as much as I could

[young goblet]

not that you need it its always cheaper on flea

[vagrant cargo]

Slapped the best suppressor on it

Died instantly.

[sterile minnow]

if it makes u feel any better, im at 1mill

fucking cuckshine

[vagrant cargo]

Mag

Ah

[hazy veldt]

nah, GPNVGs don't really add much range, just make it more normal vs predator nvidia panel/postfx.

[vagrant cargo]

Moonshine sucks

Do 95k

[sterile minnow]

yeah did 95k now

[hazy veldt]

Moonshine is king, so much profit.

[sterile minnow]

and then I find a moonshine 10m later on woods

eft legit trollolo'ing

[vagrant cargo]

I keep making awesome guns only to die instantly

While a half asleep double barrel run gets me murdering squads

And I don’t play like a pussy with the good guns

[hazy veldt]

with chad gear, you're maybe playing too loose.

[vagrant cargo]

I’m aggressive af in both cases

Ehhh

[young goblet]

i really wanna use the 155 but i cant hit 40m shots with it

[vagrant cargo]

I still think of what I’m doing

[hazy veldt]

false sense of security from slick, etc.

[vagrant cargo]

153 is the most accurate shotgun WHAY

[vagrant cargo]

Nah I make my best efforts to not get shot in the first place

[young goblet]

i like the 155 cuz i feel cool while using it

[vagrant cargo]

But holy shit I get insta head eyes so often with good gear

My most geared run recently I died to some cunt on reserve

[hazy veldt]

CQB do be like that.

[vagrant cargo]

Motherfucker shot me through the wall

Which sucks

And the other one I was taking my lvl 6 friend to do the bronze watch thing

Died to some dude in fortress cause our comms were dog

mostly his tbh but he’s new that’s understandable

[topaz violet]

does 9x19 rip ammo break armor fast or should i just aim for stomach/elgs

[teal trail]

AP-M in a vepr 206 can destroy any wannabe chad with 2 thorax shots

[vagrant cargo]

Nah

“Chads” won’t be wearing none of that fufu lame armor

[teal trail]

I killed a 2 man both rocking killa armor wit it 😔

[hazy veldt]

magnum buck to leg is

or anything out of a vector/p90

[glossy gale]

pfilter prices are just gonna keep going down right?

[young goblet]

ap-m can 1 tap class 4

[glossy gale]

I got 2 rn wondering what to do w them

[vagrant cargo]

idk i was thinking of a slick

[hazy veldt]

chads do not wear class4

[vagrant cargo]

killa armor is awesome though

[young goblet]

chads of this wipe run class 5

[teal trail]

realistically how many mf’s wear slicks

[glossy gale]

class5 is too easily accessible to not run

[young goblet]

and a lot of them run gzhels

[teal trail]

And apm shreds gzhels and killa armours

[glossy gale]

apm goes hard

lmao

[vagrant cargo]

bro there’s a lot now

[teal trail]

How many people actually use them without shitting themselves in gear fear

[hazy veldt]

the chads.

[glossy gale]

Theres probably a lot but I genuinely never see slicks, only nighttime customs maybe lmao

[vagrant cargo]

idk what kinda lobbies yall end up in but there’s a lot of brave cunts with slicks n altyns now

[hazy veldt]

I run slicks I find, otherwise tactec usually.

[teal trail]

Idk ever altyn wearing slick abusing chad has been pre dogshit

[young goblet]

the chaddiest of chads dont wear altyns cuz of all the penalties

[teal trail]

achhc or shattered mask

[vagrant cargo]

How

Unironically how

[young goblet]

ive seen a lot of tagilla masks this wipe

[hazy veldt]

tagilla farm is becoming pretty popular.

[teal trail]

Idfk it’s not hard to click with a laser on their head while strafing

[sterile minnow]

altyn

[vagrant cargo]

Idk I can’t pen them altyns

Plus holy shit

Idk they have good aim here

Some dudes prefire me so hard they actually just shoot me through the wall

[mystic oar]

anyone have tips on how to bounce back after a big losing streak

[teal trail]

I’ve been having stupid luck with penning face shields and armor

[vagrant cargo]

scav idk

[teal trail]

Half the mf’s in factory are easy to pin what room, labs is just a bunch of people that screen share to their friends thinking they know what they’re doing and call you out for cheating when you predict the same spot for the 5th raid in a row

[hazy veldt]

just run BP

~55% pen on first shot.

[vagrant cargo]

what 💀

i play neither of those maps

factory is the most dogshit map ever

only redeeming quality it has is how easy it is to snowball

[teal trail]

Factory is free gearsets to bring to labs and get more gearsets

[vagrant cargo]

Eh I’m not a labs guy

[young goblet]

im 50k xp away from running labs

[teal trail]

Reserve is fun for pvp but fuck raiders cause they make no noise and dick on you the second you jump into bunker cause they’re huddled together

[teal trail]

Wym lol

[stable island]

can u get the rogues loot ontop of the building in water treatment

[teal trail]

no

[young goblet]

therapist 4

i could trade mechanic but thats too much work

[stable island]

ive died to p scavs the past 4 scav runs

l,fao

lmfao

[smoky moth]

they're pretty fun for me to fight

but its always the looting that gets me

you have to open all your ears while looting the raiders

and also find the bodies

which is what happened to me earlier

this stairs is bugged dude

[vagrant cargo]

stairs

[smoky moth]

i got 3 but 1 glitched through the stairs

surely he didnt spawn with a slick

[vagrant cargo]

hexgrid

[shell vigil]

Hey, this is my first wipe I play in NA and I'm currently level 21 USEC. Looking for others to help with quests/ just have fun.

[mystic oar]

holy shit i actually got tagilla that scared me so bad

[hazy veldt]

where is his armor?

[mystic oar]

my buddy took that

but i got the rest lol

i guess it wasnt buddy

[vagrant cargo]

What the fuck

Did you go in naked

[hazy veldt]

giving loot to your friends? What is this communist korea?

[mystic oar]

it really wasn my friend he just kinda followed me

[hazy veldt]

[mystic oar]

and took it before i could

[vagrant cargo]

then kill him what the fuck

[mystic oar]

i was a scav i dont want my karma to go lower than it was

but i regret not killing him

my karma is already -.58 just from mostly accidentally mistaking a scav for pmc

[vagrant cargo]

wow

did you kill tagilla

[mystic oar]

yeah

i guess that helped it

[vagrant cargo]

why are you fucking killing bosses

[mystic oar]

he was still there after 5 min left

[hazy veldt]

bruh

[vagrant cargo]

that is not a good reason

how is that a reason in any way

[glossy gale]

worth?

[vagrant cargo]

No

Holy shit what the fuck

It costs a whole 110k !?!

[hazy veldt]

you're lucky the scav following you didn't kill you

[mystic oar]

i have been on a huge loss anyways

[smoky moth]

repair costs almost as much as the armor

[mystic oar]

i dont even have a rig for these mags

[hazy veldt]

repair to 50 or 60% or whatever to sell to rag.

(drag the arrow thingy lower to not repair everything)

[glossy gale]

aight ty

[vagrant cargo]

I mean

Is the assault kit even good

[hazy veldt]

no

[vagrant cargo]

Lame

[hazy veldt]

gen4 is problematic in general

[tough aurora]

anyone know why the saiga-12 nerfgun is always "Offer was sold" when you buy it?

[hazy veldt]

disgusting ergo penalties, gross turn speed and movement penalties.

[vagrant cargo]

HMK ain’t that bad

It’s not great but it’s usable

[hazy veldt]

because it sells out in first 10 seconds.

you have to be really on the ball with reset.

[stable island]

what ammo should i got for the sr1mp

[hazy veldt]

iirc the global limit is like 30.

and since it's the most cost effective method to get FLIR-RS...

[mystic oar]

how do i reload this saiga from tagilla i dont have a rig for the 3 slot mags

[hazy veldt]

rightclick on mag in backpack, install?

or uninstall the mag in the saiga first and then manually drag

or use strandhogg or alpha rig.

[junior holly]

@mystic oar what level are you?

[mystic oar]

ah yah

[mystic oar]

6

i just came back this wipe

[junior holly]

Coolio

[mystic oar]

havent played in awhile

[vagrant cargo]

Do not Murder bosses

[stable island]

what ammo should i get for the shrimp pistol

[mystic oar]

i wont anymore lol

[hazy veldt]

as scav*

[vagrant cargo]

BT or PS

[hazy veldt]

murder them for all their stuff as pmc

[stable island]

where do i aim with PS

[vagrant cargo]

Head

Shrimp is a pistol with pen ammo

If you wanna shoot legs use a glock 18 or something

[stable island]

sounds good

thx

[vagrant cargo]

Np

[rain wing]

you should always play on max fov right?

I was watching a bunch of yt clips and some people had low fov for some reason lol

[hazy veldt]

haha, no.

[rain wing]

no?

[stable island]

NO

[hazy veldt]

https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/ropph6/theres_a_major_issue_between_sights_lasers_and_fov/
for one.

[rain wing]

oh.

[stable island]

pretty sure when u ads on max fov its hard to seep ppl

[hazy veldt]

also, if you're on ultra-wide max fov is pretty oof.

[rain wing]

so is tarkov fov fucked or summ?

[hazy veldt]

yep

[rain wing]

ah

so minimum fov orr

what

[stable island]
