[lapis hill]

[fervent ermine]

[somber rain]

[dire void]

@mint light the settings u gave me is sick

[mint light]

lol

[bold kernel]

what are the settings

drop a pic

[fervent ermine]

^

He also uses 4:3

@bold kernel

[bold kernel]

nah like

a picture of his game

[green portal]

what do you need to equip in raids to not get rushed by Scavs?

[bold kernel]

something that isnt a pm with mags

[green portal]

I have a PM with mags

if I used an APS with mags I would be fine?

[fervent ermine]

@bold kernel

You need to have a primary weapon

[bold kernel]

sick settings

[green portal]

ty

[open hedge]

I don’t get tagged and cursed if I run pistols like the grach

[dire void]

@bold kernel

[open hedge]

Any half decent pistol with a bag won’t get you tagged

[dire void]

Put resolution to 4:3

[misty ginkgo]

Have you tried using a flashlight with those settings?

[dire void]

No is it bad?

[misty ginkgo]

100 brightness will make you blind aswell

If you use a flashlight

[dire void]

😂

Should I turn it down abit?

[misty ginkgo]

I have mine on 30

[fervent ermine]

Mine on 50

[dire void]

Too dark

[fervent ermine]

Not really too dark tbh

[dire void]

50 Is fine

[open hedge]

Brightness doesn’t do anything other than ruin flashlights

[fervent ermine]

30 isnt dark either

[mint light]

low brightness ugly

[dire void]

Oh

[open hedge]

It only affects lights mainly not the actual brightness of the game

So if it’s dark there ain’t no difference

[clear flume]

wack

time to crank it down

[fervent ermine]

It only does something if you turn it down to the negatives

[open hedge]

It does affect game brightness by like 1% per 50% you change it

[fervent ermine]

And you should only do that if you running nvg setttjngs

[open hedge]

Brightness setting is really useless

[fervent ermine]

Is it possible to see far away with nvgs

With rework

[misty ginkgo]

Factory is literally so ez

Why does kedr work so well on factory

Bruh

[fervent ermine]

And do scopes actually work with nvgs

[misty ginkgo]

I think, they changed the nvgs this wipe

[open hedge]

OMG 🙀A MAP FULL OF LOW LEVELS IS PLAYABLE WITH LOW TIER GUNS

[misty ginkgo]

@pulsar hearth this guy is shitting on factory

[misty ginkgo]

Nah but

I wouldn't expect that factory was this easy

[fervent ermine]

Isn’t everyone low level

[misty ginkgo]

With a fucking kedr

I got a lvl 33

[open hedge]

Factory will always be the easiest map

[fervent ermine]

Woods

[misty ginkgo]

have you ever played lighthouse?

[open hedge]

Bruh both of those maps are filled with snipers

Nobody likes that shit

[misty ginkgo]

It's literally so easy to avoid them aswell

Map knowledge

[dawn geyser]

[fervent ermine]

Ello kwon

[misty ginkgo]

@pulsar hearth what am i gonna do when my stash is full?

[pulsar hearth]

Sell it all

[fervent ermine]

When give op

[dawn geyser]

Did you guys check out the sniper rock on the leflt side of lighthouse expansion

Op af

[open hedge]

Factory has the easiest pvp in the game literally a pistol can lobby wipe

[dawn geyser]

[misty ginkgo]

I am not gonna sell my junk box

Or my guns

[pulsar hearth]

Sell the things that you get from the kedr run, but keep the things you want I guess

[misty ginkgo]

I've gotten some pretty good stuff from the runs

[open hedge]

Btw the mp5 is the best gun in the game

[misty ginkgo]

So i kinda wanna keep it for other maps

[misty ginkgo]

False

Kedr is

[open hedge]

Mp5 and mp5k have style points over everything

Especially the mp5k

[misty ginkgo]

There's a way to get MP5 to bug into your shoulder

[clear flume]

5k running anim

[misty ginkgo]

So your camera is in your shoulder

Pretty cool

Btw @pulsar hearth what is your sr?

[bold kernel]

@mint light what are ur graphics (not postfx)

[mint light]

ill have to launch the game

[fervent ermine]

Do not

You will regret it

[misty ginkgo]

Don't use them please

[misty ginkgo]

10%!?!?!?!?

[fervent ermine]

He only runs factory

Like a real chad

[misty ginkgo]

My have literally rise 3%

Running factory

Im at 51% now

Idk how

[open hedge]

My sr on factory is like 80%

It’s so easy

[misty ginkgo]

Mine is 100% today

[mint light]

mine are good

[misty ginkgo]

I don't think i've been dead on factory this wipe actually

[dawn geyser]

The pinks have taken over

[pulsar hearth]

Mine has gotten worse since last wipe but I do not care because I am making money

[misty ginkgo]

Are you?

[open hedge]

The gamers have taken over

[pulsar hearth]

Yes

[misty ginkgo]

How much are you making?

[mint light]

if im blue there will be less pink

[pulsar hearth]

I haven't averaged it yet, but a net gain is better than net loss

[dawn geyser]

If you're blue there will be the same amount of pink

LOL

[mint light]

no

i will assemble the blues

[fervent ermine]

If im blue there will be less teal

[misty ginkgo]

A raid is taken you 13 minutes, on average. If you didn't take a break from the game ever.
How

[dawn geyser]

That doesn't take any of the pinks out of commission

[open hedge]

Can I be red? (To help with the average)

[dawn geyser]

You got automodded

[pulsar hearth]

I am starting to run out of kits again though so once I am done with them I will recount

[fervent ermine]

Give wized operator

[misty ginkgo]

i will stop boost if i get op

[clear flume]

[pulsar hearth]

What does this mean ?

[misty ginkgo]

YES

[dawn geyser]

Guess you're never getting op

[misty ginkgo]

It's gonna run out in 2 weeks anyways, got it for free because of steelseries 💪

[fervent ermine]

Cancel nitro sub

[dawn geyser]

lol

Be careful what your banner defaults to when it does run out

[edgy musk]

I really need help with tasks im new (first wipe but basic unsterstanding

[misty ginkgo]

A raid take you 13 minutes on average, if you didn't sleep, eat or anything - if you only played this game.
That means it's probably A LOT lower, if you did those things.

[fervent ermine]

Does it change to some random shit?

[misty ginkgo]

bruh

[fervent ermine]

Hm

[misty ginkgo]

who tf blocked n i t r o

[pulsar hearth]

Yeah I have slept and eaten a few times, I am not sure if that is good or bad

[open hedge]

It's the two together

[clear flume]

[fervent ermine]

Ohhh, you cant type discord nitr o

Ah lol

[misty ginkgo]

[pulsar hearth]

I am not sure what is significant about this? Do other players have longer or shorter times ?

[misty ginkgo]

Auto mod is gonna ban us at some point

[clear flume]

[misty ginkgo]

[clear flume]

[open hedge]

114 is impossible to get

[fervent ermine]

[coral kettle]

is it going for a lot?

[open hedge]

You either find it in raid or barter a rivals armband

[pulsar hearth]

Oh I think I understand what you mean now, I am not sure about that I have not ever compared that to anyone else.

[coral kettle]

OH

[whole thistle]

Way longer

I got like 4 run throughs last wipe lol

Out of 200 raids

[pulsar hearth]

well yeah that also makes sense

[fervent ermine]

Wait you only played 200 raids last wipe

[whole thistle]

Yeah but I had a 50% survival rate

[alpine cedar]

i need help for Jeager letter on Woods, im out of roubs LV4

[whole thistle]

Yeah I didn't play much

Only got level 35

[fervent ermine]

@pulsar hearth Want to join max gang

[whole thistle]

He would fit in amongst the gigachads

[misty ginkgo]

German is our best player

[fervent ermine]

Jk jk jk

[misty ginkgo]

Stop lying

[fervent ermine]

He is loot gremlin tho

[whole thistle]

He's like 9 years old we don't count him as a person

[misty ginkgo]

@pulsar hearth please join max gang

[pulsar hearth]

What is max gang ?

[whole thistle]

It's a clan kinda

[misty ginkgo]

It's a tarkov group where you can always ask for advice, have fun and share your highlights/lowlights and ask for feedback.

Very friendly community

Nearly everyone in this chat is a member of it

[pulsar hearth]

Oh it sounds nice and interesting

[fervent ermine]

Nah it is a cult group of people who love playing tarkov

[misty ginkgo]

It's another discord, outside of the offical tarkov discord.

[fervent ermine]

Even alespic is max gang

[whole thistle]

I've been in since its conception but have used the server 1 entire time

[misty ginkgo]

I sent you a DM with the invite linkj

[clear flume]

[ornate owl]

i havent been able to find any of the new guys yet

[open hedge]

I saw them on woods too

[ornate owl]

that seems like the worst place to fight them

[open hedge]

Knight was chasing me for like 200m like he was tagilla or something

I got away

[ornate owl]

lucky

[open hedge]

My teammate got “assaulted in the rear” by knight

[ornate owl]

lmao ive seen a lot of people have that happen

[open hedge]

Knight either snipes or shoves his barrel in your mouth

[ornate owl]

do they have helmets?

other than the mask on knight

[open hedge]

Not sure

Didn’t get a good look

[ornate owl]

yeah i guess its hard to

they seem to be hard to kill

[open hedge]

Door trick them

They are like killa basically

Their ai turns off for a second after opening a door

[ornate owl]

oh thats good to know

[open hedge]

I almost killed big pipe with a shotgun doing that

[ornate owl]

[open hedge]

Than knight sniped me

[ornate owl]

[bold kernel]

[fervent ermine]

Propital and just kill scavs

[bold kernel]

Idk the location names

[open salmon]

why this doesnt work for gunsmith part 4?

[ornate owl]

[mild knoll]

It weights too much

[ornate owl]

[fervent ermine]

Wrong handguard i think

[open hedge]

I’m at a festival and my service is so ass

Is action sx ammo good

[cobalt escarp]

no

[random nimbus]

i miss my max strength 😭

[sand needle]

so im not new by any means, and im used to 0 to hero while marked and cursed. but have they completely changed the game or something? cause im getting spammed ON SPAWN by scavs and there in locations you never see a scav literally ever. and in groups of 5 or 6. not raiders, not guards, scavs. and they seem to never end sometimes. and when i say spawn. i don't mean just spawning scavs that are wondering, i mean spawning them behind me, in the room next to me, all targeting me. and some of the scav names look like they are meant to troll me.

[open salmon]

Nothing

If u dont have traders

Ps ammo is good for 769 by 39 tho

[random nimbus]

anyone need any guidance for quest. im lvl 35 and have finished most of the questlines this wipe

[knotty summit]

so i really want to get good at this game because i feel like i would genuinely enjoy it, but i always get killed literally less than 2 minutes in...i havent even explored much of any map. what should i do?

[wary vortex]

has the shortage quest always been 3 first aid kits i thought it was 2

[random nimbus]

learn pathing of maps. you need to just play the maps learn where people go. Pick one map learn it in and out first i recommend customs, shorline or reserve. next learn how to get good movement and how to position yourself to win fights. Honestly positioning and timing is the best way to win fights in this game

[knotty summit]

thank you! might learn shoreline then.

[molten marten]

anyone got bunkhouse key

[random nimbus]

pm me if you have any questions. shoreline it what it is. you only need to learn the resort but the audio is very weird there but you can make so much munny

[silent hamlet]

how do people leave file cabinets open when searching them?

(or any container, really)

[clear flume]

they close on your screen but stay open on others

its strange

[sacred pendant]

Hi there - new to the wipe, looking for a squad

[sand needle]

@silent hamlet @clear flume some things are client side, which appear and dont appear on your side. But for those who never interacted with the., it shows the server side information, which is looted. Same works for scavs and if you load in and check certain jackets and stuff it won't show you that it needs closing because it happened before you joined the server

[clear flume]

it still confuses me because theres closing sounds

that noone else can hear

[sand needle]

Yea because they are not technically closed. Regardless of what you see

What you see and hear is only on your pc. The rest is shared with everyone

no you cannot see someones online status in game. however anyone with a brain will see you go up a level and know you are playing

[cerulean dock]

energy drinks/milk

[open hedge]

I use milk and hot rods

[bold kernel]

MFW Do great in Tarkov as a Duo
absolutely trash as a Solo

I get overridden with anxiety and I care too much about my stats I think

[ornate owl]

i prefer solo

[bold kernel]

As the standard pistol runs, AK offline runs in Factory go fine, but PVP everything goes out the window

[ornate owl]

everyone ive play with is annoying as fuck

[open hedge]

Play duo get one tapped play solo get 1 tapped

[sand needle]

@open hedge welcome to tarkov

@bold kernel and as long as you care about your stats, you will never be a competent tarkov player. stats come after knowledge and practice

[open hedge]

I have 2000 hours I know I’m just joking about my ass SR

[sand needle]

@inner patrols (lv18) you think the tagline welcome to tarkov is reserved for new players? its a constant reminder that this game is out to f u is all lol

[bold kernel]

Just with Solo play, I go from being calm and collected to just deer in the headlights fucked

[fervent ermine]

@open hedge

Pinged wrong person lol

[sand needle]

i copy and pasted the one that was rejected lol, it defaulted to you

[open hedge]

I’m invincible

[echo scarab]

Tale advantage and conquer

[sand needle]

@bold kernel and thats my point entirely, every player has something that they have to overcome that others do not struggle with. like for me for instance, nobody can get rich faster than me, i know this for certain, but as for squads and all that other stuff, im hot garbage. stats don't tell the whole picture in this game until you have had many wipes both solo and in groups

plus your stats reset every wipe

also a big tip, is if you find yourself freezing in groups, don't let them lead you, tell them you want to take point, and you take lead, after a few deaths that feeling goes away

[bold kernel]

Oh no that's what I mean

in a group I take point and give orders

when I'm solo I go full bambie

[sand needle]

oh you struggle in the reverse i got you

well in that case playing like i do solo might help, im a total rat , a hyper agressive rat, but a rat. So i have zero fear of the outcome because im still making profit regardless. but in doing so again, i dont have that fear and need to creep around. and then i go full chad gear when im with people

ive 2 tapped every helmet and face shield in the game this wipe with a standard glock 17, and the crappiest ammo in the game

[bold kernel]

For me I think it's the confidence knowing I'll be able to go head to head and come out on top and for me I don't have that Solo

[sand needle]

you will if you don't bring gear in

bring a paca a crap rig and a pistol or an sks or something

don't bring good ammo

don't bring more than 40k worth of gear into a raid

you can fit that in your butt easy regardless of standard account restrictions

just dont bring the meta stuff, like meds

keep your butt clean, and bring crap gear

eventually you will bring whatever you want

and always insure everything

cause that crap gear will def come back

[open hedge]

Paca is meta

[sand needle]

kirassa is meta

[hot ravine]

Do I need golden stars for anything or I should just sell them

[sand needle]

golden star balm?

thats the higher tier vasoline

pain killers on crack

[hot ravine]

Is it required for any task ?

[tepid knot]

No

[sand needle]

no

[hot ravine]

Ok then Ill sell them

thx

[tepid knot]

They are good to use but if you don’t wanna use them yea sell em

Arguably the best pk in game

[boreal fern]

What the fuck

[sand needle]

he typed it in like he didnt know what they were, not like if he was asking for quests

[hot ravine]

I got vasolines

[sand needle]

vasolines are garbage in comparison

[boreal fern]

Trying to get the bronze pocket watch with 2 buddies, EVERY FUCKING TIME I GET BEAMED IN THE FACE

[wet solar]

which quests unlocks .50 bmg slugs?

[tepid knot]

Golden star is far superior to Vaseline just use it as ur Vaseline for a raid

[hot ravine]

And Im garbage to other players in comparison so I dont need them

[sand needle]

yeah blocky time

[stone yacht]

you can use a 1 use golden star and 1 use ibuprofen for the propital craft later

so if you use them and save them it's worth

[sand needle]

another very good point

golden star is one of those things i feel silly just selling

unless im getting them constantly

which early wipe, i never do really

[hot ravine]

Ok then Ill keep it thx for the guides

[stone yacht]

just keep it in your butt and use it before moving into dangerous areas

then once it's 1/10 keep it until you get the propital craft

[sand needle]

once i start getting golden stars, i dont even pick up vasolines lol

[tepid knot]

As long as u got space no reason not to pick up

[boreal fern]

Man I can’t even finish a raid

[sand needle]

i min max slot value, so rarely is a vasoline worth more than most things i find

@boreal fern i went on a 13 game death streak, 6 of them were right out of spawn. i totally feel you

today*

[boreal fern]

Like I clearly don’t have any gear and people just head, top of head me

[sand needle]

wont matter if you have gear

thats tarkov brother

[boreal fern]

I can’t afford to bring anything more than a makarov

[stone yacht]

it takes awhile but survival depends a lot on your movement

knowing when to sprint, when to wait and listen, and where to look

[boreal fern]

I literally just die, I don’t have time to do anything

[sand needle]

because you aren't doing what other players are

[stone yacht]

the only map that would happen on is glass hallway on factory

so you're not dying instantly, i promise you

[sand needle]

you ahve to listen

more important than armor in this game, is ears

[boreal fern]

Lost all mine

[sand needle]

12k

12k for that 15k for a pistol

[boreal fern]

8k rubles in the stash

[sand needle]

then reset

what lvl r u

[stone yacht]

you can reset your account if you want to start from scratch

[open hedge]

Double barre

[boreal fern]

8

[sand needle]

reset if you can't make it

[open hedge]

Or do a scav run

[sand needle]

yea

[open hedge]

Not that hard

[boreal fern]

My scav has the single shot, I guarantee I’m going to get shit on

[sand needle]

reese, not everyone is skilled at managing those sht broke down weapons in the current way they work brother

[tepid knot]

Take the time to learn the maps, you die at first, you die at any point in skill level, it’s all about trying to decrease your chances of dying.

[mellow rock]

server's fluffed rn?

[open hedge]

Mfw the guns jam every 4th shot after the new patch

[boreal fern]

And it’s taken me so long to get to where I am, I don’t wanna reset

[sand needle]

thats what im saying, these new players don't stand a chance with scavs the same way we did playing

[boreal fern]

Only valuable thing I have is the fucking evasion armband

[sand needle]

not to mention some of the guns dont seem to even FIRE straight

[boreal fern]

But can’t flea it

[open hedge]

Simply clear the jam with efficiency

L than shift T

[stone yacht]

i haven't had a single jam this wipe actually, knock on wood

[tepid knot]

Yea low durability really makes guns inaccurate, feels like ur shooting a musket sometimes

[boreal fern]

I’ve had 1

And I didn’t know the keybind so I just slapped my whole keyboard

[open hedge]

I’ve had like 15 jams and I’ve only used 4 half durability guns

[sand needle]

@boreal fern this game def takes a lot of practice to be able to manage everything efficiently. and if you aren't going into lfg and looking for people helping newer players you are just going to get sht on

[stark anchor]

Is there a list of what can’t be sold on the flea market?

[boreal fern]

I have 2 friends trying to help me, but every time we see a scav or player I always die first

[open hedge]

I got into a gunfight where my scav saiga 9 Jammed 4 times in 1 10rd mag

[sand needle]

@boreal fern then they are poor teachers, or you just keep wandering off on your own lol

[boreal fern]

On raid 6 of trying to get prapors stupid fuckint pocketwatch

[sand needle]

oh i dont bother doing quests early wipe

i prefer getting rich

[open hedge]

Enter raid sit in bush for 20 minutes go to quest

[boreal fern]

They keep me from putting a hole in my pc so

[open hedge]

I sit around 500k till I hit level 40

I max out at like 2 million

[sand needle]

yeah that sounds boring af to me

[bold kernel]

can someone help me. 1: when i enter a map, idk where i am. the map genie is completely useless. 2: once i cross this barrier someone insta kills me. what the hell.

[tepid knot]

Saying your even asking questions here means that you like the game but find some people in here that can help you and you have fun chit chatting with, it will make the deaths feel less painful and the wins feel more glorious

[open hedge]

If map genie is useless I’m sorry to say but that means you’re useless

[hot ravine]

Practice with offline mode

[bold kernel]

i am

i still dont know i am on the map

[tepid knot]

A map like customs has a lot of choke points people have to go through

[sand needle]

@bold kernel ignore the troll telling you that you are useless, i struggle with all top down navigation, the main thing in this game is knowing what you are looking at and relating it to the top down map, so go into offline raids, and run around untill you find the landmarks listed in the image

[bold kernel]

buildings have unreadable language, so thats useless

[boreal fern]

Idk any of the maps either, besides bits and pieces of customs and woods

[tepid knot]

Just like a real map, you have to find a landmark to orient yourself with

[sand needle]

tise

you wanna know all of the landmarks

go watch pestillys map guides

[bold kernel]

im mainly using woods as practise. its really difficult. everything looks the same

[sand needle]

if you cant use that, and offline mode, reese might be right

[tepid knot]

Very true, his were very helpful

[wary vortex]

pay attention to the location tab on the map genie site, for example customs has a bus terminal to help you realize where you are, woods has a crashed plane etc

[hot ravine]

Try using compass or another map

[sand needle]

woods is a different beast

do not use that as your gague on map awareness

[bold kernel]

is there a way to connect map genie to your game. so you know youre exact location on it.

[boreal fern]

It’s the only map where I don’t get deleted immediately cause I can hide

[open hedge]

Woods is hard to learn but easy to master after learning imo

[sand needle]

ive played forever, and i still cant navigate that map cause it all looks the same till you hit the major points lol

i have no use for woods

it gives me no benifit so i dont play it

im usually at like 30m by lvl 15

at that point i can run all the maps and even get lost and it wont matter

@boreal fern you can actually do that same thing on every map

[wary vortex]

personally woods is my main map because i dont have much trouble after looking for the jaeger stuff there, i feel like everyones differnt though. Like most people suggest customs for new players and even in general but i HATE that map. I would look around at the maps and try to find one you think you can navigate/enjoy

[bold kernel]

ok, ill try that

[sand needle]

i play reserve and labs only @wary vortex

[wary vortex]

i wanna try reserves but without map genie ive been hesitent

[bold kernel]

also, when i cross this barrier. a mine explodes and i get shot. whats with that

[sand needle]

reserve imo, is the easiest map to learn, the hardest to master

[wary vortex]

thats pretty much out of bounds

if you see a mine sign do not cross it

[bold kernel]

ok

[sand needle]

lol oh to be young in tarkov again lol

[wary vortex]

but on the flip side you could use that to help identify where you are

[sand needle]

very true

[bold kernel]

thx

[wary vortex]

my first raid i walked into mines and died

also in the top left theres a sniper which is the same story

[faint peak]

Is being level 19 "low" this far into wipe? (Playing casually, not speedrunning)

[sand needle]

pestilys map walkthroughs and guides are actually fantastic, you should load them up, and walk along with the video as best as possbile

[tepid knot]

No! I’d say you’re right in the main pack of good players!

[sand needle]

arguably the best sherpa to ever exist in tarkov

[wary vortex]

im lvl 10 lol

[sand needle]

im lvl 16 @faint peak and ive been playing since the start of tarkov

@faint peak everyone who is currently level 40, will not be playing tarkov when you are level 30

[wary vortex]

im having trouble now because im on the prapor quest to get the pocket watch but i swear i die like 75 percent of my raids to customs idk why

[faint peak]

I started about 3/4 into the last wipe so this is my first start of the wipe. Trying to do all the quests but the stupid Jaeger ones like "kill 3 pmcs while having a tremor" is just stupid lmao

[hot ravine]

I have a hell of tasks In front of me right now and I have no Idea what the fuck should I do

[sand needle]

thats why they call it, pocketwatch and leave @wary vortex

that task is cursed

[wary vortex]

that whole map is cursed

[sand needle]

customs?

only early wipe

[wary vortex]

i dont know why people say its beginner friendly ive gotten my shit rocked

[tepid knot]

Some, a lot of them will still play the whole wipe

[sand needle]

because beginner friendly doesnt mean, wipe starter friendly

[wary vortex]

very true lol this is my first wipe

[sand needle]

everyone is rushing that map with the same intention

to do the task

or to kill those doing the task

[tepid knot]

Yea beginning of wipe is just a crazy time for everyone

[sand needle]

EVERY ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE moves on

then its just regular customs

[faint peak]

How should I go about the stupid Jaeger tasks? Should I just naturally achieve them over time or try to intentionally damage myself and take on PMCs on factory?

[sand needle]

i dont do any questing untill after the first month

no point when you are rich

[wary vortex]

im struggling to get rich its always 2 steps forwards 3 steps back for me

[sand needle]

pistols

[tepid knot]

Yea jaeger damage I don’t try to do, I just notice if I have a broken arm and then don’t heal it so you can get kills with it

[sand needle]

and aim

gg all the money

[wary vortex]

just going on pistol raids?

[sand needle]

ask anyone that has been in this chat if they have been 1 tapped by a pistol

first month of wipes i run only glock 17 shit ammo

[tepid knot]

Homies already got 100m

[sand needle]

im rich asf

[wary vortex]

no armour or anything?

[faint peak]

Wait until lvl 15 then you can make money. Just do pistol money runs and get like 400k/10 min raid

[sand needle]

that all depends

map matters on pistol runs

[wary vortex]

yea im thinking woods is a bad one for it

[sand needle]

you would be correct

[wary vortex]

i really should start doing reserve ill need to watch a vid on it

[sand needle]

only because the static loot compared to every other map

is horrible

the old money guides for reserve dont hold up well lucy

[faint peak]

You can do interchange money runs, hit the same tech stores/computer rooms and always extract in 7-10 mins making an average of about 350k/10 mins (once you unlock the Flea Market ofc). I did that last raid and it hasn't changed much

[sand needle]

thats my only map and i can say confidently if you can get good at shoreline, its way better

[faint peak]

Shoreline is good too

[sand needle]

reserve used to be amazing

[wary vortex]

yea i feel like playing woods so much is holding me back

i rarely find much

[sand needle]

now you have to know where EVERY SINGLE STATIC SPAWN is, as well as have god tier aim with the pistol

[hot ravine]

What u do if u were out of space

[sand needle]

when they added d2, it made pistols harder on reserve cause the actual skilled pvpers came

[sand needle]

i learned everything i needed to become an expert on reserve from pestily. watch his loot guide, the only change that has come to loot, is the d2 underneath, and that the loot has been much more spread out across the map, rather than in just 1 or 2 spots

[wary vortex]

ok thanks

[sand needle]

and feel free to add me. i buy nothing but pistols, i run no armor. and ill find you loot

the only thing that sucks is they made marked and cursed so much harder, and i can't find anyone who knows anything about it

[wary vortex]

i might hit you up then lol i usually play solo though, and what does marked/cursed mean?

[sand needle]

when you bring only a pistol

scavs no longer do the little dance

make a little love, and get down tonight

they push

like raiders

and lock on your head

like aimbot

[wary vortex]

oh so they can tell you have only a pistol?

[sand needle]

before you spawn in

not player scavs

ai scavs

they become programmed to SPAWN ON YOU, and hunt you

[gritty prairie]

updated it to pistols now? Not only a knife?

[sand needle]

i didnt have a choice

i went from normal raids every night

to all of a sudden spawning in a bunker on reserve, with 6 scavs spawning in on me

can't get away

which is why im looking for someone who knows the tag and curse mechanic better than me

[wary vortex]

is this an actual thing they do to try to stop people from doing those runs?

[sand needle]

cause it has to have been changed

oh its been a thing

for a while

its just so much harder to beat skill wise now

theres only so many times you can flick shot with a pistol lol

[valid trout]

what did you bring in

[sand needle]

what you bring in doesn't matter, tagged and cursed is tagged and cursed

but im saying they CHANGED what tagged and cursed spawns on you

[valid trout]

no it does matter what you bring in

[sand needle]

not at all

you are either tagged and cursed

or arent

[valid trout]

it does

just tell ,me what u bringed in jeez

[sand needle]

skittles you aren't correct im sorry

[valid trout]

oh really

[sand needle]

i won't entertain it

[plucky ravine]

if u have at least armor or a primary it wont happen

[sand needle]

im not trying to prevent it

stop tryign to teach i know how to not be tagged

lol

im saying they CHANGED what it does

[plucky ravine]

then wyw

[sand needle]

the spawns, the amount, and where its possible for them TO SPAWN

[tepid knot]

Dude ur contradicting urself ngl

[sand needle]

not at all

read it all over again

ive played since the game came out

ive always ran naked

over the course of the game

they have changed what tagged and cursed DOES

not how its caused

i get how its caused

ive always loved tagged and cursed

[valid trout]

bro stop talking you dont know what youre saying

[sand needle]

i know exactly what im saying

which is why you are broke and im not tf?

[tepid knot]

Tagged and curse definitely has changed this wipe but putting on armor and gun always stopped it in the past

[sand needle]

im not trying to stop it

im trying to figure out what changed

because scavs are spawning in the same room as me, in bathrooms

[tepid knot]

Figure that out somewhere besides beginners assistance

[sand needle]

which has never happend ever

or what

[tepid knot]

Haven’t ran into that

[valid trout]

huh? i hjave 4 gpus found in raid and 1.5 mil

[sand needle]

thats it?

[tepid knot]

What I’ve seen is groups of scavs running across the map to go to someone who’s cursed

[valid trout]

"thats it" 🤓 ☝️

[sand needle]

i had 15 gpus found in raid by the 8th hour

[valid trout]

goffy ahh pfp 💀

[tepid knot]

Dude literally he really ruining the vibe

[sand needle]

You guys chimed in on our vibe tf you mean

i mention one thing and here comes the know nothing skittles and the white knight with no info

oh i forgot 4 gpus and 1.5m lmfao

[tepid knot]

If you want to help beginners out try and do it without it coming across as flexing

[valid trout]

yea\

[sand needle]

i was helping

[valid trout]

also im not new\

[sand needle]

and then i mentioned something to someone I HELPED

and yall chimed in

[forest estuary]

Guys I cannot find a game on tarkov with any maps help

[sand needle]

nobody asked you

[valid trout]

oh nah 💀

[sand needle]

you are the weak links here lmfao

[violet dune]

google has plenty of links to detailed maps if thats what you are asking.

[mint light]

discord pvp at its finest

[bold kernel]

ok, so i have soooo many questions bout this game. 1: i mainly use scav when doing online, but my inventory sucks. i cant loot anything, no room. 2: what exfil locations are there for scavs in woods map or any map? 3: are exfil locations faction specific? seems bias. 4: what maps are great for scavs?

[sand needle]

@forest estuary are you auto selecting or manually selecting servers?

[forest estuary]

@violet dune No like the it is like nobody is playing the game

I think I am on auto select im new

[sand needle]

select servers with low ping

dont auto

[digital sable]

#community-support might help

[sand needle]

ignore what people say

select servers, like 5 or so

[forest estuary]

Oh ok Ill look where to change server

[digital sable]

if its something beyond not picking right servers

[forest estuary]

I got USA

[tulip siren]

Use this to learn the maps https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/woods

You can filter out everything but extract if you want. Yes some are scav or PMC specific. Woods is good for Scav so is Shoreline (Shoreline better imo). Both are very safe maps to roam around where you can avoid anyone if you want once you learn the map. Also there are great stash runs

[violet dune]

1. Use rigs to store items in, look up hideout items requirement and keep those(to either sell at flea market when lvl 15 for insane profits or keep). Look up required quest items and keep. Vendor the rest, look up items if you arent sure what they mean. usually hideout items are expensive so u keep. 2. Look up scav exfil on woods map on google and a few should pop up. 3. dont think so, not yet at least. 4. imo i say woods or customs but they're all great except factory but it depends.

[wary vortex]

im pretty new myself but from what i know 1: scavs usually have bad backpacks in general unless you up your scav rep by extracting as a scav the gear gets better 2: theres lost of differnt exfils for just scavs you can click on the exfils on map genie and it will give you a picture of it and a brief description and who can and cant use it 3: No just PMC or SCAV 4: most from my experience

[boreal fern]

Finally got an extract jfc

[tulip siren]

it just gets more normal from here on in! Other than all the deaths in between

[boreal fern]

My survival rate is 28%

[forest estuary]

Why is there only 1 person looking a group on shoreline

[boreal fern]

[bold kernel]

the rigs dont have enough space to carry guns, or other gear like hats.

[tulip siren]

you are scavving, not many people do there

[violet dune]

for guns remove mags and pistol grips, it will give u more space.

[frail ruin]

any tips for getting un broke

[bold kernel]

how am i supposed to lvl up my scav if i cant get better gear on matches since my pack sucks?

[wary vortex]

scav karma goes up, check your fence reputation thats what it is

[violet dune]

hit safes, run scavs and extract dont gotta loot everything 50-100k every 15mins isnt a bad start. loot tool boxes, stashes, etc.

[west sluice]

Did customs time limit change? I remember spawning around 35 minutes in the previous wipe, now its less than 30 minutes

[mint light]

are u scavving

[west sluice]

Pmc

[mint light]

u can also just like load in late if ur on an hdd

or slower loading times for whatever reason

[bold kernel]

what does karma have to do with my scav? if he dies, then i have to start over. so ya.

[open hedge]

All raid times are temporarily shortened to reduce que time

They will be reverted during mid wipe

Or so I hear

[sand needle]

hey reese you seem to have a ton of answers

[mint light]

reeses is like me but bad at the game

isnt that right reeses

[bold kernel]

how am i supposed to loot anything when my pack only can carry 5 stuff.

[boreal fern]

Scav timers go down and If ur scav rep is super low scavs will kill you as a scav

[open hedge]

[sand needle]

any possible way of explaining how i get killed by a player scav 98 seconds into reserve?

[open hedge]

I can fight well when I’m playing serious

[boreal fern]

Tarkov

[mint light]

he did not like your 308

[west sluice]

Is it true that some bosses will not kill you on sight if your karma is high enough?

[mint light]

yes

[open hedge]

Reserve is the most scavved map at this point so they slip in fast

[sand needle]

player skavs cant spawn until a specific poilnt unless they changed it

[open hedge]

6.0

[sand needle]

its always been a specific amount of time

before player scavs can enter

[open hedge]

In interchange they can get it 1 min after start

[sand needle]

wasnt that way on reserve

[bold kernel]

but once my scav dies. i get a different scav with different gear. i never keep the same stuff

[sand needle]

thats why im confused

[valid trout]

oh my god its him

[open hedge]

Who

[valid trout]

you

i remember you

[boreal fern]

Yea but the time between scav raids will be shorter, and your scav has a chance to get better loot on spawn

[open hedge]

I don’t leave this channel

I lurk here

[valid trout]

bro

[open hedge]

But I remember you

[valid trout]

do you not remeber me

[violet dune]

if u refereeing to scavs loadout. yes sometimes u will get no backpack nd/or small rig. find dead scavs, i suggest going into a map u are familiar with. certain rigs got place space an extra 1-5 slots more than it takes that u can keep in ur inventory as a safe. once u get to 1.2m u can buy a scav junkbox from therapist. also weapons that u arent going to use, or got low durability vendor out to fence or strip parts away and sell it to mechanic.

[valid trout]

good

[open hedge]

I don’t forget people often

[bold kernel]

1: in order for me to find a dead scav. i have to kill him first. so ya, there better than me since its an npc. also they travel in groups. 2: why do i have to run 1.2 meters to buy a junkbox?

[open hedge]

Possible answer I just came up with is due to the reduced raid time scavs get in instantly as is theoretically already the time scavs are let in

[boreal fern]

Don’t kill scavs as a scav

[mint light]

its negligible

[bold kernel]

Lol, im a player. not an npc. they shoot on sight on players.

[mint light]

they dont shoot player scavs

[bold kernel]

thats gaming rules 101

[mint light]

unless ur reps in the negative

or like maddd negative

[open hedge]

Bro how low is your reputation

[violet dune]

depends not really, most often than not you will find dead scavs or players with stuff left over, typically found at high traffic areas. depending on the load in time, you will be in match with on avg about 20mins left or most often than not less. even then, every 15mins u bringing in profits if u extract whether u spawned in with a big backpack or not. over all, still profit that adds up over time as u learn the map, items to grab, and hotspots to visit without dying.

[sand needle]

@open hedge i didnt really think about the reduced time being a factor. ive just never once on reserve, in over a thousand raids on the map, spawn within 3 second walking distance of a player scav, and thats how it felt

[open hedge]

They don’t shoot on sight till like negative 4

[bold kernel]

what does rep have to do with enemies? it only affects merchants

[long plover]

who do i sell gold rooster too?

[mint light]

fence rep effect how ur scav works

[mint light]

therapist

or flea if u make a profit

[open hedge]

Or if you shoot one that raid

[hot ravine]

Which flash light/laser is good

[open hedge]

Either way that’s your fault if scavs shoot you as a scav

[bold kernel]

idk. i dont where rep is located on the menu

[sand needle]

@open hedge and to clerify further, my experience is, i only play marked and cursed, and we rarely get player scavs spawning on us, just in my experience, so that may also be why i havent

[mint light]

why are u tagged and cursed

[digital badge]

personal preference, I like the x400 the best but a lot of people swear by the dbal

[mint light]

do u just hatchet run

[violet dune]

fence's rep system is different. it goes up if u extract as a scav, get bonus if u extract with a pmc as a scav (nd vice versa). goes up if u extract as a pmc from car/dynamic extracts where u gotta pay to leave (fee* goes down/up depending on ur rep with fence). goes up if u kill a pmc as a scav, goes up if u kill a rogue scav player (i.e. pScavs with negative rep with fence). goes down when u kill ai scavs or positive rep player scavs. goes down if u kill bosses. doesnt go up/down killing raiders/or rouges at lighthouse. also your scav cooldown goes up/down depending on ur rep with fence. as well as in the hideout the scav box times go up/down dependin on rep with fence

[bold kernel]

well ya. if you improve your relations with a merchant, then you get better gear.

[mint light]

it effects more than just gear

[open hedge]

It’s your fence rep underneath his trader icon

[sand needle]

what map are they attacking you on?

[bold kernel]

ok 1: what? 2: if im a scav, i cant kill npcs, i cant kill bosses, i cant kill anyone who gives me loot besides other players.

you cant kill player scavs

[violet dune]

yes ai scavs, and bosses (usually tell u to leave or they will shoot). u can kill pmcs, and player scavs that shot u and hit u, otherwise whoever hits first takes the bad rep effect. u can of course kill whoever and whatever all up to u.

[fringe bronze]

kill raiders

[bold kernel]

how am i supposed tell whos who if i dont even have a ui!!!!

[violet dune]

there are plenty of places to get loot from on the map that chances are is worth way more than the toz that an ai scav is holding.

[digital badge]

by looking at them or listening to voice lines

[violet dune]

with time, you will get to tell.

[open hedge]

Clothes

[digital badge]

scavs have distinct clothing and voice lines compared to PMCs

[bold kernel]

in this game, basically everyone will shoot on sight. you cant trust a single person you see

[digital badge]

its your choice to shoot other scavs if you want to

just be ready to accept the consequences

[violet dune]

too add on that, their movement and the routes they take and the actions they do. no player will stand still in the open spin around and check mag, and run back and forth between point A and point B.

[open hedge]

I’ve had countless peaceful interactions

The objective isn’t to kill it’s to survive

[analog pond]

can someone help me find jaeger

[violet dune]

BR would mean only one/squad leaves the match. this game everyone can leave the match if they chose to. BR has one objective, this game has as many as there players in the match cuz everyone is loading in for a different reason, sure some will go in for the PVP, some for the PVE, and some for loot, or all at once.

[bold kernel]

and to loot. people have loot. in order to get gear, money you need to kill players

[open hedge]

Not necessarily

[violet dune]

not really

most money earned isnt from players, but from the spawns.

[open hedge]

Money is made off barter items guns and armor sell for very little

[lean kindle]

most of the loot is in the map already, just grab it and get out

[fringe bronze]

bro just kill raiders

[west sluice]

Is a tac kek heavy trooper mask worth using or should I just sell it?

[bold kernel]

who are the raiders? everone looks the same from a distance

[open hedge]

It has its uses

[violet dune]

u can avoid every player/ai if u know where the loot spawns, and where everyone could possibly spawn.

[sand needle]

raiders are only on certain maps, and they have to be summoned

[fringe bronze]

raiders are in lighthouse (rouge camp) and reserve

[violet dune]

raiders typically voice in either english or russian. they spawn on reserve, lighthouse(rogues), and labs. anywhere else they are either boss ai and his guards, ai scavs, ai players, pmcs.

[lean kindle]

dont worry about the raiders, they are just strong AI. Just loot the houses and buildings in the maps for now. Try learning where stuff is on a map https://mapgenie.io/tarkov

[bold kernel]

well, im currently only playing on woods map to learn the basics

[lean kindle]

nice! great idea

[valid trout]

Raiders are not on lighthouse

Rogues and raiders are two different things

Or factions

[fringe bronze]

rouges my bad still dont give you negative rep

[sand needle]

lucky for you no raiders spawn on that map. but like on all maps there can be guards that spawn with the boss, guards are similar to raiders but have different targeting parameters

not all maps sorry, most maps

[violet dune]

if u hear an svd with burst fire across the map avoid that location.

[bold kernel]

ok

[sand needle]

yeah listen to lucifer

if you hear a shot that sounds like it could stop your car from moving

[bold kernel]

why

[sand needle]

turn around

shturman

woods boss

[open hedge]

Labs and reserve are the only maps with raiders

[bold kernel]

ok

[violet dune]

technically lighthouse too but they are called something else, slightly better. and dont shoot usec pmcs on sight.

[open hedge]

Rogues are their own ai
