1 mill not enough?
Toz is great bro
toz is gang
i know toz is great
but i just want like an sks or something so i can go woods and not instantly die
Nah Factory scav all the way
Lighthouse scav
i scav factory almost all the time
Actually make money
no
Nah
customs night scav 
whats best budget nvgs
I enjoy monos
theyre all fairly dogshit
Yeah none are amazing
But I run flashlights at night cause I like blinding people with 3 maglights on a shotgun
My games not bright enough to do night without night vision
1 is bluetint, other is green and the mono
imma post this and go to sleep lmfao
I don’t get how everyone can see so well in the dark
I can’t see shit
I run it either way, easy cultist hunting
or cultist scraps
I mean its hard to see but its harder for the guy with the NVG
cant really see much at the very dark times, but otherwise its workable
where should i am when using supersonic
Burns their retinas
I wait for it to hit 10pm
Then play night with nvg until 5am
literally cant see with nvgs if someone puts a flashlight in your face
its downsides to both, but id still recommend nvgs if you got pk3-pk4
but the barter on pk3 is like 100k more than the buyout on pk4, only reason id push him tbh
I wanna run with some chads on woods/lighthouse for the loot spawns so I can learn
Watch yt vid
There are plenty
I can do woods, but I don’t really chad it
Just an sr25 or an rfb
gotta get them spodereyes
With 30rounders
night & day between them and the shitty ones
Did you see how drippy I looked?
i hate video games
Sweaty boys adjust the contrast & gamma of their entire monitor to see at night. Pretty lame imo
I’m not spending 1mil+ on clothes
Then you don't appreciate the drip
They get silloutted against the sky
I got customs full moon
Actually the exact same as playing in the day
No joke it was that bright
But when you increase gamma flashlights blind you soo hard
I play on high gamma and flashlight is my nightmare
True
I like it darker no post for experience the game as intended is that a play no its a box is this where the hidden stash is no its a box
i love factory!
Lets do it later
Yeah I’m not doing it now
I’m in bed my dude
Got shit to do in the morning, because being an adult is dumb
I think anything you can do with postfx is fine as it's inside the game itself. It's when you go externally to your monitor's software that it gets cringe imo
should i keep condens milk ?
You can therapist it
ight
Can also trade 3 at a time with ll3 ragman for a decent rig
Well it’s 12am rn
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS TOZ
Toz OP
Am free all day tomorrow so np
do you guys just suggest spamming tasks as a timmy/first wiper? lvl 17 feel like all the maps got me 
Yeah
Do tasks so you know what's up next wipe
do have the maps open on a nother screen but just yolo the tasks?
even tho idk what stuff looks like?
Yeah lvl 3 traders asap is a good goal to shoot for
Think about long term bro. Do what is necessary to learn all the maps first and then work on tasks
Figure out a cheap kit for next wipe too. I got myself a word doc with all that shit
hes prepared 
Ik 4 maps by heart. Just need someone to hold my hand on wood and a little bit on reserve
Dirt gear and SKS
What should i focus on upgrading for my hideout?
But Im moving away from my SKS nowadays
you've gotta be shitting me i killed two schads and then the last guy had a pistol because all i had was thorax and head
Would it be better to just buy the stash upgrade items rather than finding them?
its a good budget armor
mans farming
Campers ruin the fucking game
Mans trying
I almost made you a mutant
But I got exfil camped
Can i put armour in items case?
Sadness
I let you grab my only mutant I ever got
no they dont
They do stfu rat
I had 2 rogue mutants and 2 troopers
so i dont know why they cant
and you can’t get a kill without waiting 30min in a shitty spot
i waited 4 minutes
they were gonna extract camp too lol
they were shooting lights out
Oof
I take out lights in night loothouse
doesn’t make you any less dogshit
i liked it
you suck they suck
Suppressed apb just to stay hidden
if u find it difficult to check spots people hide in before u extract
then thats ur fault
i learned from it
what are the best dorms keys for safes and good loot in general?
why does my scav doesnt refile stamina ? had that on me
do you suffer mild to severe brain damage ?
“campers make the game more fun”
this isnt cod
obviously you’re the camper and not the dude chadding through squads
Campers have made me lose more loot than gardredd
And that’s saying something
worst argument ever said
what dorms keys should i bring for loot
with a shotgun
“uhh this game in beta has something you don’t like ??? wow delete it xoxo”
its always gonna be there
i seriously hope your pc catches fire
and no
it’s not always gonna be there are you completely braindead
i said that cuz you seem to think this game is supposed to be a breeze
like how factory is rated
you are either trolling or completely stupid
no
crazy
I think the game should give a debuff called paranoia if you don’t move
Start hearing footsteps and voices
the game should add instant death if you are near extract more than 60 seconds but not extracting
Also they gotta fix strafing
Rats are unironically too advantaged rn
Can’t peek them with the dogshit bugged ass strafe
Okay dumb question
I see people running but looking other ways
Without changing direction
Of movement
How do you do it
MMB
I never knew that
Did you never check your fucking keybinds
hold wheel button
i think youre just upset that not everyone has the same chad playstyle as you do
every time i see him in chat hes always mad abt something
im mad about the task mechanic has
it’s mostly about ratting around being insanely op now thanks to how dogshit peeking is now
gotta buy a 1.5m dollar key
no
Yes
Guy**
ill extract camp u
yes
Mine only pesters me to play wow
?

lol
terrible game, divorce her
Could’ve fooled me

I could never
insert triggered gif here 
WoW is dogshit
why
I’ve only played for like 2 years
don’t get it
She’s played for 10
may aswell stop now, retail is omega cringe
can I tell you to commit suicide without getting muted here?
Not for me
This new raid tier litty
Probably not
can you nerds shut the fuck up
k
Gard buy my sr25 a suppressor please
The one I had is only 600k
Yeah it’s not great
But I look forward for when we hit mythic this tier
for what, a suppressor ?
so i have like -.2 scav rep and i am level 11 and i just got 2 labs cards?
We’re 10/11 hc already so, it’ll happen soon
Yeah
600k
I built the rest of my sr for like 300k total
But the suppressor is 600k for some reason
havent raided mythic since like wod

These last 3 raid have been aight
Nathria was the hardest so far
Overtuned to fuck
But less of that
Whqt suppressor
I don’t know
the whole expansion just retconned everything lorewise
Probably won’t be hard to find it at that price
Yeee it’s kinda shagged
and they cant even get their lore straight
fucking butchered it
dh 
Vengeance dh goes Brrrr
I know I did
But it’s fine
I’m a good tank that’s all I care about
I can press 3 buttons when I need to
classic wotlk soon 
man, best 2 years of gaming in my life ngl
just mad that I didnt record enough, was gonna make a montage and all
I’ve barely played recently
I hit minimum plat and stop ranked
Have done for like 6 years now
I forced myself to stop, actually pit of depression playing that shit


bruh 
He’s lit ok
I ended up with khazix, but ive been all over the place, cept bot

yeah
got like what, 300 champions to choose from 
looking forward to future seasons of it, since they cant fix their fucking game, atleast they can make a good series

That’s the one good thing that’s come out of it
They are hella good at series
Even cinematics of theirs have always been good
yeah fr
I remember seeing the twist of fate one for the first time
Yeah you know it
took them 6 years to make Arcane,
that the next ones arent as slow
true true
Until then
Tarkov and retail
One day I might convince wifey to play tarkov
But she hasn’t bit yet
might end up with a murder if you do that 
That’s almost been the case with retail
Letalone actual games
I remember looting the big love rocket only doing the event once
And she’s done it on 20 characters for like 5 years


always the freshies getting shit man
You slowly get used to it
aim, shoot, run
its painful to the point im not even having fun im dying to ai
cause they all swarm me
Try not to move and shoot
and its probably a good idea to look up on youtube
ive watched a ton of beggeners guides and stuff like that
A straight-to-the-point beginner guide for ESCAPE FROM TARKOV, with important gameplay tips.
This starter guide covers: healing, inventory tricks, advanced movement, ammo, and more.

The ...
i watched that one
Something like that
mill or old village?
ya its pretty good video
helped me get a loadout and all that but my game just feels clunky
and like bad
inerta for ya
car with violet near outskirts 2 shots to thorax before i could even blink
wait wait wait, can the car by scav house spawn it? oO
22:00 - 06:00 is night time, avoid unless you know the map/got nvgs
no the checkpoint near outskirts
closer to mill than outskirts tho
dont care
I do 
didnt know that lmao thanks for letting me know lmfao, i was doing factory at 3am and was so sketched out
i was playing like a weirdo
man night factory first timer
sketchy ash
the BALLS on this guy, holy hell
terrible
i was like crouyching everywhere and got shot in the back and got a heart attack
ahh the first wipe feeling
feel it while you still can! I miss being scared to fucking death by random gunshots
im back down to the glock 18 smh no more m4 or mp5
do some scav runs on maps you know, easy money there
i was playing woods at night and some dude with a sniper was just shooting at me adn i countent find him and he killed me 😦
yeah sniper scav im assuming, on top of the big mountain
it just wouldent stop shooting and i countent tell where from
not really on top but
ya
buddy scav snipers thinking they cool
when you know the route to kill him, hes free sniper and ammo
youll get there man
first wipe is usually the hardest
youre free to ask in here btw, just easier to find people in lfg^
hit a pmc with m855a1 in the face (he had a bastion on)
he didnt flinch
he just ran away
Yup 545 moment
chad scav
did you get your revenge?
is there a chest to store heals/food items?
yeah jaegar
is trading allowed?
Pretty decent scav run ngl
not in this server but everywhere else yes
Care
I’ve talked to mods about it
No mentioning the discord
Just an average water enjoyer
Do your stats like time played and etc stay after wipe?
all stats clear other than hours played
Sick so my extract ratio won't always be ass
Mine will always be ass.....sooooo
Im at 20%
I'm at 23%
Damn
Better than mine lmfao
How
Not by much
I suck at this game but am some how addicted
Im using this wipe to learn paths and mess about with cancer gear
Just scav to learn map
I walk in most raids without a helmet and body armor
And learn pmc spawns and how map flows
I'm trying.....trust me
I mean I know them now:)
Good
I am also relatively new to PC gaming
is it possible to cook grenades?
Yea
How does one learn this power?
According to Reddit - you can't
you can prep nades not cook them
I can't wait to start a Bear character
my favorite part of the wipe is early wipe so im just excited for the next wipe even if its still gonna be a while
Yeah same I'm tryna get a little group of people I can do early loot rush with
Best decision you can make
Bear uniforms are so much better
i can run sks with bp ammo now
Nice
Why only now
At lvl 24?!!
It be like that
Im glad I'm not the only one cursed by the Tarkov gods
anyone wana caryy a noob ?
where do i find mp 43 1c ga shotgun
scavs spawn with them, or if you just want to use one Jaeger sells them
i need 4 from raid
already found 7 of the other shotguns but this one never shows up
when do you ads, and when do you not?
usually don’t ads in cqc
scavs
i returned as a scav and got my gun back but the pmcs who killed me took literally everything off all the raider
they were assholes on voip too
hmm, Its just such a habit
am i the only one who cant turn the letter in for postman pat part 1? its annoying because its a "quest barrier"
when will i start getting good at this game
never, someone is always going to shit on you, me everyone
i get shit on every game
same
but still am i the only one who cant turn the letter in for postman pat part 1? its annoying because its a "quest barrier"
Turn it into therapist first
oh ok
Most likely, the thing you need to work on is positioning
I can help you learn the maps and how I usually move around them if you want, I've been playing for two and a half years
@wicked minnow i agree. i find that it helps a lot to reposition frequently when engaged in a fight. they tend to loose track of where you are, not always but i win more fights when i do that
how do i keep track of the other player lol
i had a fight in goshan the other day, i just completely lost the guy
Learn the map, learn where they can go, and where you would go if you were them. Sometimes, they just vanish, and I would back out of the fight at that point
yeah i've left fights for that reason also
Nothing more annoying than getting into a fight with a geared chad, losing him, extracting and seeing ??? BEAR ??? on the end screen tho XD
i'm new to the game and loose more fights than i win but that strategy works a lot better than just staying in one place
You wanna run some raids stock?
hell yeah, will you be on in about an hour. got a something i need to do at the moment
i think i just got double teamed
the both throw bout 7 grenades' at me
i thought they fixed it
you think they can fix things?
Ive bought my first pair of GPNVG's
How are they
Well, Factory at 3, Running a 4 man while they are all buget running im SR-25 with M80, and Fast Helmet and the GPNVG's
dont bring expensive nvgs to factory, flashlight is goated
how do I cheese punisher p4 but the shoreline part, this shit is breaking me bro
im 2/8
*2/10
its killing me
how have you been doing it
yeah just not on factory
just running resort, but my kills werent even from there
I mean u could stack it with sbih but that isn’t exactly cheese more like velveeta
what gun
I've done a mpx, a tx (which got my 2 kills), I forget the rest
it just
isnt working
this is making me so mad
whats ur prapor lv
uhhhh
I cant check rn
but im guessing 3
I just want the bp's from p5 man cant keep doing this shit
Is there any like 1x-3x Scopes or is it just eh Specter 1x-4x?
Is hillside house key banned from flea?
uncheck exclude barters
https://youtu.be/7YJTGk8U_l0
My Factory GPNVG Experience
I got the poop scared out of me by this scav

did they change it so you have to drag the items to the trader? or is this a setting in the options menu that im missing?
check "fill items"
should fix it
i see. but didnt it used to tell you how many items you had in your stash before?
i swear they changed it
without you having to click fill items
click auto fill
i dont see auto fill, only 'fill items'
so click it.
the auto fill box
do secure drives really spawn on the outside of pcs i can never find one
RFB build under 200k?
any suggestions?
customs pc van, campfire near dorms
cobra grip, get rams for >8.5 and barter for silencerco
or any other cheap can
dumb question but whats the range like on the RFB
at least 3
very far
how would it work close quarters
it would work
should be around 200k
u can put a better foregrip if u want
still lost even tho I surprised a player
skill issue
depends on playstyle, i usually have a soft minimum of 500k and a hard minimum of 100k
decent
its not automatic but if u dont overpeek u should be fine
u cant just run into them and spray em down like with other guns
a billion
420 million
pmc pretending to be a rogue on lighthouse lol - "scav ahead"
i blame net code, every other game like valorant gives your an advantage for holding angles
lmao no
yes

how does valo give you an advantage for holding angles when every game has peeking advantage
because they’re forced to push objectives
still doesn’t solve the peeking advantage
I’m sure valorant has peeker’s advantage like any fps
but there is clearly a benefit to hold angles in valorant so there must be a reason 🤔
you can also prefire in tarkov while running, but in val you need to stop all movement so there is definitely a disadvantage there in pushing
then it could be argued that in @bold kernel ‘s case he’s just holding the wrong angle; same in valo just camp the “objective” whether it be a chokepoint, loot, w/e and it will be advantageous
and that is true, a good ambush is lethal, but he’s clearly just ranting about “the netcode”
peek
308 my beloved
Is it worth upgrading Security in hideout?
never not invest in hideout
everything is worth it to upgrade
you would need Security for a lot of hideout stuff to be built
yea air filter doesn't work this wipe
solar is expensive, but i'd reearn the money back anyway and i get 50% fuel consumption instead
it’s good for completionism but it is not worth it at all in the short run
Bitcoin farm not worth it now I think
anyone got a 60 round mp5 mag i can buy?
there is none
50 rounder exists
do u guys think there will be april fools eventv?
its an event if its your birthday
hey is there a way to stick a flashlight to any bolt action rifle?
Sure
any? not sure
most have pic rails however
Factory boss. He is easy to kill
na i mean whichever i can get a flashlight on i'll run
I mean not all bolt action can but stock m700 can for sure
!wiki tagilla
That radar looks sick

i mechanic repaired that slick
gotta make it back
I hope you took of at least that 60 rounder, grip and scope
nope
fuck the 60 rounder

You need 1 for gunsmith
but the 60 rounder is funny
are these statues like roosters and skulls used for anything or do i just sell
No that 60 rounder
I think there are some barter trades.
Try to look at tarkov wiki










whats a barter trade?
Bad boy here 
how do I know someones name in raid? A guy on factory had shouted out my name over voip asking for heals but he died before I could give him any, I wanted to add him and apologize

Give me sec
Cheaters
He would kill you after that
but if he was cheating why did he need heals? it was start of raid and he died in front of me
im just confused i guess
sounds cheaty to me
For example wooden clock. https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Wooden_clock
You can find any other statues there and it will show you what you can barter it for
ah isee
i think ill ust sell them
at least the skulls, idk why but i keep finding them
He maybe got shot from scav and he didn't expect that he will need heals bcs cheating
that actually tracks, ty
when u guys pmc run should i kill everyone i see or just talk
How much is the damage reduction for shots that don't penetrate?
If you will play enough to build lvl 2 intelligence centrum, you will be able to use these to build scav case.
ive had some success talking, but its not a guarentee they wont just betray or shoot you
yeah ive been betrayed once
I think you will get like 10 dmg but I am totally not sure about that. Hidden stats are ass
what gun do u recommend for rat runs
someone told me to always bring a gun in case
On what map
i just started bringing this pistol
i usually rat on reserve but osmetimes customs
i seem to die more on customs than reserve
I would take at least shotgun with some trash slugs
which one?
Double barrel can do the work and it costs 7k
ok imma do that
i was bringing pistols but i find it hard to kill things
like scavs
But be careful with that. Shitty slugs can't pen most of armors
i died earlier cause these scavs wouldnt leave outside of a house i was in 
do u insure ammo
can't
You can insure mags. But not ammo
oh thats why
If u insure mags, prapor will take ammo out of it and he will give you only mag
He is bitch
what a bitch

whats a good budget smg
what is good level 1 trader armor
i was using the mp5 and it didnt seem good
hard to use for me
i think its cause i didnt have any attachments on it tbh
ironsight was impossible to aim with
whats ur level
i kinda just want something people wont usually pick up
If u have lvl 1 traders don't buy anything. Try to find some armors in raid. It will safe you a lot of money. But you won't wear armor and that's the problem
4
i lost both the mp5's the game gives u for free 
Iron sights are trash. I can't see where I am aiming
only good for killing scavs tbh
I think you are able to buy only lvl 3 or max 4 but players commonly have ammo which can penetrate these armors so maybe take some lvl 3 and go kill scavs to get better armor.
I killed some players with mp5 yesterday 
It's not that bad with ap 6.3
Ofcourse it's 9mm so no pen at all but its playable

died to a raider as a scav very interesting gameplay
he was in the courtyard between the 2 mechanic shops
Raiders shoot scavs
literally have never seen them before
yeah but they dont look any different from scavs
I have seen them there pretty sure
sure
Better gear and shout in americano
anyone wanna help me speed level 15 real quick ? im level 12 US
They shoot first and then shout
Grind quests
i mean thats just not very fun lol
You have to learn how to farm raiders
i have been i just want someone to build me guns for mech
cant farm them if i dont know they are there
so much easier to do quest when u get flea
not really lol
Just get lvl 15 and then you get to gunsmith part 6
wym my guy saves u so much time having to go loot for shit u need
Not rly cuz most beginner quests are just running around
keys and whatever else
i mean i cant think of that many quests before 15 where it couldve really been helped by flea
maybe like to upgrade your hideout and craft something instead of finding it in raid
The quest keys are pretty fuckin common
the before 15 quest keys have pretty consistent spawns
even zb14 ive found on the roof of white pawn like 3 times in 10 scav runs
Getting workbench 1 you can craft gasa
feel like sometimes scavs like destroy me is it recommended to just straight up stand still and shoot back? or move and shoot them
Hip fire them if ure close enough
Don’t repeak an angle
That’s p much it
U can stand still if it’s the first shoot u shoot at them and as long as u hit it it’s fine imo
need some help finding gas analyzers
i know reserve decently but dont really know interchange that well
Craft them
And that

Dk
Im looking at a video and i guess i have the wrong reciver
should i just sell trooper armor
Use it it's good armor
i have a bunch of class 4 already
i have no space
for a 3x3
i already flea ed it

when would you guys say to get rid of gear fear? been trying rfb but dying hurts the bank 
try to find some good loot routes
thats whats been helping me
so you know you can make it back
especially for things you can get with roubles
Cache/Loot runs at night.
If you have 10-20-50-100m in the bank you stop worrying about losing .5-1.5m kits.
also if you see your scav has a good backpack, you can do a loot/cache run too.
Scav till ure 8 mil or something
That’s when I started buying kits
Been running 400-500k rfb kits even if I die 4 times I just go lighthouse and make it all back and then some
And yeah stash runs
i have 27 mil and I barely just started buying kits
been running exclusively geared for 2 weeks tho
anyone wanna help me speed run to level 15 im almost 13 now
new player got like a stash value of 10m 
8m spare cash?
Hm
No idk I just started spending
When I had 8 mil rubles in spare
That’s when I felt comfortable
I got like 1m spare 
yea f u fence
were you just using sks till then?
Nah I was scaving lighthouse and doing cheap kits on customs
Kinda just being very rat like and hitting stashes and loot buildings depending on where I spawned
I think I used sks for a little bit
Moved on quickly tho
Gluhar 4 me 0 ☹️
double barrel/ump + large backpack + cache/loot runs + night = easy net positive income.
1-2 mil enough
what map do you go for night? swear there are cultists or I cant even see like at ALL
Wear some nvgs then
He’s lvl 17 looking to get over gear fear.
Oh I joined late
U good
I got over gear fear when I stopped playing customs lol
Once you start realizing that bringing in good gear increases your chances of survival, you start becoming more comfortable bringing in better gear
I used to not take stims last wipe because they were expensive. But what’s more expensive, using a 30k stim that might save you or losing your entire kit and loot?
I’m at that point rn
I’m bring in 400k rfb kits to lighthouse
I bought a stim case and I’ve been getting loot
Been popping sj6s, mules proposal
The injector case is one of the best additions to this wipe
I’m hesitant to pop a mule unless I’m super overweight. They’re so expensive
But I craft tons of propitols and I’ll use those like candies
I pop a mule if I’m 47 or over
I also get mules from lighthouse a lot
They spawn a lot in USEC house
And 100k isn’t much in a lighthouse run tho
I don’t play lighthouse much. I’ve been playing woods
Woods is such a fun map to play on
Moonshine, sugars, tons of gold spawns and a few tech spots
Why???
But I also have to kill shturman soon
So many snipers
And also
Can’t see people reliably
Woods is the best
Without like scanning shit 1000 times
I usually stay away from sawmill though. That’s super easy to get sniped in
But village, sunken village, scav bunker and USEC, you can usually hit all of those and MAYBE see 1 or 2 other PMCs
And walk out with 400k+
Yeah but you don’t get to have a nice hike through the woods
Scav on lighthouse is good
I usually into the water treatment plant
And the rail yard
idk how to kill the rogues there as a scav tho
they dont kill you
Just don’t go up into a tower or in the building that they hang out in. (I forgot the callout for it. It’s the one closest to the train yard, where one of the extracts is)
ok wait how does the jaeger quest you need to kill people near office
is it
you need to be in office?
or they need to be in office
or both
giga gamer scav
yeah I meant office as in the whole 3 storey area
though normally people are on the 1st and 3rd floor
They need to be in the office. From stair to stair, any floor in between works
alright
fuck this jaeger quest 💀
what's the strat for this?
just run cheap guns and go straight to office?
Timmy double barrel with magnum bucks
aight
do I just go
completely
naked?
I mean I'm not expecting to live tbf
aight
here we go
😋
Docs not needed for factory, grab a salewa or an ifak/afak + hemostat
i just downloaded a update but didnt see anything in the patch notes about it
is anyone having that too
if you don't care then completely naked is fine, I did it with the fuck you wide mp153 + tarzan rig + ears personally.
safe loot
80% of the time got them back.
that’s it really
wide mp153?
LOL
I killed another timmy tryna do the quest
tough luck
mf had a 155 with flechette
with the AGR-870 pistolgrip
MP153 that barely fits into a couch
6x2 is enough, don't have to use the longest barrel.
good for that min recoil
oh, I think if you're not using the tube stock, then the normal pistol grip also makes it a 6x2?
or hmm
not sure, i think it makes it a 6x1
Here I go wiping offices again
Don’t go nude
Trust me even shitty armour will save you from other shotgun Timmy’s
Also what’s a good suppressor for the sr25 under 100k?
The one I found and used is 600k on the flea
What lvl do u have skier/mecha
