you go to the map and use your land marks

dense pagoda
#

it simply isnt

jagged needle
#

Try to snipe the entrance ones, go through there and then maybe look out for the coast side machine gunner

#

Depends on how deep u need to go try to snipe the other machinegunners too

normal ermine
#

shoreline is just woods but even easier to maneuver and figure out where you're at.

dense pagoda
#

tasks*

jagged needle
#

I am not sure but it feels like they also nerfed the amount of rogues, I only saw 0 to 2 on each roof

normal ermine
rain karma
#

go offline mode, open mapgenie and learn it.

dense pagoda
normal ermine
#

I used to hate shoreline, but damn

#

I love that map now

#

the tasks are just a bitch

jagged needle
dense pagoda
#

i heard they dont spawn on ground at all

#

you can now loot the ones on the roof

normal ermine
#

"Oh, run around, mark this, oh and while you're there, mark that, oh, that too, and that, and while you're at pier, may as well die to sanitar."

dense pagoda
#

ive been up to the roof

fallow totem
#

Takes time, it is a very open map. I learned shoreline by learning where the stash locations where on the outside of the map and just going into raids, online and offline. Just keep finding stash locations with the map on the wiki, once you learn the outside by scouting, then work your way inward.

I saw them inside the cliff side building in Pest stream and usually they only go inside on the railway side

dense pagoda

#

Im glad they nerfed them a little ngl tho. The ground ones were legit just one tapping u with iron sights from 300 meters

dense pagoda
#

i really need to get back onto my tasks

#

after lvl 25 ive slowed down

normal ermine
jagged needle
dense pagoda
#

but i would go factory

#

with cheapest shotgun

#

and keep running it

jagged needle
#

With no armor or?

normal ermine
#

I mean i didn't go factory

dense pagoda
#

just go basic af

#

no armor.

normal ermine
#

but if you're struggling, I'd go there

dense pagoda
#

6k a run

#

if you die go again

jagged needle
#

Hmm I guess I will try

static nebula

#

does anyone know when/how you get m62?

#

from what trader/taks?

normal ermine
#

I'm debating whether or not I wanna buy a red rebel rn or not

static nebula
#

loading map in tarkov, do I need more ram?

buoyant crane
#

32gb is optimal

#

16gb is minimal

shut sable
#

Anyone know why lighthouse is the one map that causes me problems when loading?

#

Struggles to load then when I do finally connect I get 1-5 fps before getting a server connection lost issue

dawn geyser
static nebula
#

yea, game also crashes if im watching youtube

#

while its loading

dawn geyser
static nebula
#

where is the pagefile

dawn geyser
#

Windows + R
Open your run page and type in 'control sysdm.cpl'
Go to the advanced tab, under performance hit settings
Advanced again, and change the paging file size
Select an SSD drive
Untick automatically manage paging file size for all drives
Use 16000 minimum and 25000 maximum
Once you’ve entered your size of virtual memory, click Set, then click OK to apply the changes.
After that, restart your computer and give it another go

Keep in mind this will take up some space on your SSD for as long as you have that volume on

This will also very slightly decrease the lifespan of your SSD

Modern SSD’s will barely be affected (might even not be affected)

Kwon have that shit copy pasted

dawn geyser
static nebula
#

its good with sata too?

#

gonna be a good solution until I buy more ram

distant pike
dawn geyser
#

Waldo spots you

#

I would've 100% not seen him

shrewd ocean
#

what of this will i not be needing in the near future so I'll have more money for gear sets?

dawn geyser
#

Anything you don't need FIR for future quests you can sell and buy back later

#

Hideout items the same, sell now buy back later

digital sable
#

Selling stuff now and buying back later is nice since people pay big money for hideout materials now, but demand/price decrease as the wipe gets later

violet dune
#

looks like they buffed intel spawn

#

Anyone help me do the search mission on woods? Not familar with the map at all

# flat notch Anyone help me do the search mission on woods? Not familar with the map at all

On spawn double tap o, if you have outskirts look for the huge mountain in the middle of the map. Face it, then go to the right of it. You'll see 3 villages, one small one with a large warehouse, one with the car exfil, one half flooded with a church. At the church go towards the cliffside and you should see a huge antenna and small military camp. Go behind the antenna and keep that same direction. Youll eventually run into usec camp. Fron usec, look down the mountain and youll see the convoy. Drop your bag, run to the convoy, DONT LOOT, run back. Then in usec camp cross on the LEFT side of the mountain. If you see dead bodies, thats a minefield. You'll see several cars. Run to them, then run down the mountain towards the trash. If you run too far to the right, you'll see a barren hill thats mined. From there just keep the road on your right shoulder and look for a fence. Follow it , and you'll see a house, avoid that and youll see a truck with its hood open. Exfil

#

If you can't find the huge rock, look for the sawmill, if you can't find the sawmill, look for a crashed airplane

@upbeat bobcat

wild zenith
#

is it worth selling ultra medical key right now? listing it at 1m and 500k to list. will it sell?

proud flower
#

Yes

#

Ultra got nerfed hard tbh

wild zenith
#

why are most of the people asking for rivals bands etc

proud flower
#

I sold one last wipe for 1.3 mil

tough panther
#

What does "Voice Command Quick Phrase" do? Nothing seems to happen when I press it

proud flower
#

Should make you talk

#

But its context related

tough panther
#

Oh, so thats the thing that says whatever is at the bottom right

proud flower
#

Correct

tough panther
#

Then what's "Quick Chat"?

proud flower
#

Bunch of dialogue options

#

Wont be context related

tough panther
#

Isn't that "Phrase Menu"?

proud flower
#

Not sure?

#

Might be wrong tbh

tough panther
#

Phrase Menu pulls all that stuff up

proud flower
#

Is quickchat f1

#

Or something?

#

If so I think it shouts gibberish lol

tough panther
#

I'm just messing with keys in the hideout, so I can't tell which one is the context button and which one I'm confused about

#

Quick Chat vs Voice Command Quick Phrase

proud flower
#

If thats the f1 itll make you scream weird stuff as a scav

tough panther
#

I guess

proud flower
#

I use it to show im friendly as a scav

#

No context u just scream

tough panther
#

I changed all my controls, but I'll check which one is default F1

proud flower
#

Do a quick offline scav and mash the button

tough panther
#

Hmm, nothing is bound to F1 by default, but I see "Mumble" is set to F1 INSIDE the Phrase Menu

#

And I can bind the rest of the F keys to stuff

#

I'll keep messin' with it 🙂

#

Thanks!

proud flower
#

Np!

fierce bison
#

is there a bonus for running your hideouts fuel even if you arent crafting anything?

proud flower
#

Don't think so

#

Always craft stuff

viscid kraken
fierce bison
#

oh i was just asking because i have 5 fuel contaners total and no space

viscid kraken
#

oh, yes you can place them in generator while being turned off to save space

proud flower
#

You have flea?

fierce bison
#

14

proud flower
#

Id wait and sell em

fierce bison
#

yeah ok

proud flower
#

Early wipe fuels super pricy

#

Keep the big containers in your generator, small ones in your scav box, sell the extra large ones

#

Also keep the emptys!!!

fierce bison
#

i have 4 blues and 1 metal

#

@misty ginkgo what ammo do you suggest for a kedr first time player? got prapor ll2

proud flower
#

Can you get sp7?

viscid kraken
#

no

Ppe gzt for flesh

#

35% frag chance is actually insane

fierce bison
#

whats the best way to find flash drives

#

like what map

proud flower
#

Customs safes

#

Maybe shoreline safes/caches too but i really only find em on customs

storm ibex
#

Will nord vpn affect loading in times/connection to server lost?

proud flower
#

Yes

#

Dont run games on a vpn

viscid kraken
proud flower
#

@storm ibex youre essentially adding 150 ms of latency and packetloss for no benefit

ornate owl
#

is w205 good

storm ibex
#

Is there anyway i can add games as an exception to nord??

proud flower
#

Probably but thats a nordvpn question

storm ibex
#

Ok thank you

#

I'll investigate

proud flower
#

Np. I do networking as a job and can virtually promise thats your problem. Run a "ping test" to 8.8.8.8 to see what im talking about

storm ibex
#

Will do :)

viscid kraken
viscid kraken
bold kernel
#

what is the best way to get the syringes

#

because they're being a pain in the back

proud flower
#

@bold kernel med box/bags. Very random

viscid kraken
bold kernel
proud flower
#

Thats very dumb!

#

@bold kernel crit chance essentially

bold kernel
#

it splits like real ammo?

#

oh

#

i thought it does the cross like hollow point bullets

#

i didnt know it was called fragmentation lol

proud flower
#

Pretty much yea. Irl frag does more damage and double pens inside the body. Pen chance is essentially that gamified

viscid kraken
bold kernel
proud flower
#

Yea exactly

#

As you move with an expanded round in you it'll keep cutting/tearing versus a fmj round, which will make a clean exit

bold kernel
#

btw

#

2 days ago i learned that green tip bullets are the best againts light armor

proud flower
#

Not really?

golden harbor
#

can someone help guide me through woods? getting the jaegar message is pretty rough :(

untold elm
#

where can i find measuring tape?

proud flower
#

M855 does some weird ballistics stuff. Itll pen, but almost overpen. Its better then fmj but not by much tbh. It aas m855a1 was implimented, and why the us just implemented the fury round

proud flower
untold elm
#

where are they ?

#

I got the game yesterday and am struggling a lot how do I get better?

On spawn double tap o, if you have outskirts look for the huge mountain in the middle of the map. Face it, then go to the right of it.

#

im pretty new is anyone trying to help me find the jeager camp on woods?

proud flower
#

@zenith swan accept you're going to die. Have a map pulled up. Play 1/2 maps and learn them. Don't think about gear. Just accept you won't make it out of most raids. Pestily has great video guides

#

@stray stag right above ya chief

untold elm

untold elm

proud flower
# untold elm ok

Woods is really good if you can navigate it. Customs is too. Interchange is the easiest to learn but just be prepared to die

zenith swan
#

Thanks so much, and one more question I’ve not got the best GPU so are there any display settings i can use to increase my visibility while having low graphics settings for max fps?

proud flower
#

@stray stag @golden harbor btw. You need to find either the usec camp on the shore or the crashed airplane to find jaeger. Depends on the spawn. If you spawn by a clearing and can see sawmill, run towards the huge rock. If you spawn in the woods with the rock behind you, run left until you see a train station (too far) or the crashed airplane (good)

#

@zenith swan i turn post processing off and everything to low

golden harbor
proud flower
#

Np!

stray stag
#

thankyou im pretty braindead hopefully this helps

zenith swan
proud flower
#

@stray stag np. Remember if you double tap o and dont see outskirts as an xfil, youre on the wrong side of the map

anyone have any tips for gearfear?

Np! Armor wont usually get taken and your guns are replaceable

fierce bison
#

can i open the truck door for my friend for the pocket watch

proud flower
#

Yes

fierce bison
#

ok thanks

proud flower
#

You can both grab it now actually they changed that

bleak marten
#

where do i get the tankard key?

proud flower
#

Tankard? Like the brass pocket watch one?

bleak marten
#

yeah

proud flower
#

Dorms

#

Static spawn there

#

Can get it randomly pretty often aswell

#

Just look jackets

bleak marten
#

thanks!

final frigate
#

Gunsmith part 1 does the shotgun has to be found in raid?

proud flower
#

No

#

You can get an almost complete version from the mechanic trade. Then just need jaeger @final frigate

final frigate
#

I got the barter one

#

Changes some bits, but he doesnt take it

proud flower
#

Extended mag? Laser on there? Pump mp not the semi?

final frigate
#

Nevermind he just did

proud flower
#

Lolll

final frigate
#

The laser was the issue

#

Thanks

proud flower
#

Mechanic be like

final frigate
#

ye xd

sand needle
#

Just go website

bleak marten
#

is reserve any good for a beginner?

proud flower
#

Id avoid it

#

Reserve has raiders, which is essentially the best gear farming in the game. Theres also a scav boss with tons of ads. Loots been nerfed but is still really good.

#

Issue is exfilling

viscid kraken
proud flower
#

Exactly

#

Sometimes youll scav in, hit the bunkers and find piles of raiders mostly geared

#

Ive left reserve with tier 6 armor and modded weapons while killing 0 people

bleak marten
#

ok thanks, what about customs then?

proud flower
#

Customs is mid

#

Fun for pvp

#

Best new player maps are interchange, woods and factory (as a scav). Lighthouse potentially but I haven't run it much tbh

meager shell
#

What is the difference between prapors and therapists insurance?

bleak marten
#

interchange realy?

sand needle
#

@bleak marten as a reserve main id argue its the most beginner friendly and easy map on the game to learn

proud flower
#

@meager shell therapist lasts longer but costs more and takes more time to get your gear

faint peak
#

How do I deal with my TINY stash? (Default Tarkov package). Only 10x28
It's full of Rigs for space efficiency & bags in bags, but I don't have room for any guns or anything lol

proud flower
#

@bleak marten if you know rat routes on interchange its nuts

kindred grotto
proud flower
#

@faint peak disassemble guns, get big rigs, get boxes, sell stuff

bleak marten
meager shell
#

im not the best at it myself but it helps

proud flower
#

Also really dont need to keep most mags

#

Mags take up so much room and are useless

fierce falcon
#

What's the best ammo I can buy for this gun?

native crow
#

The one that does more damage

proud flower
#

Do you have flea?

#

If not you're looking at fmj

meager shell
fierce falcon
proud flower
#

@meager shell therapist will hold your items longer

#

@fierce falcon fmj, its really bad though

safe eagle
#

Any tips and tricks for learning maps? I am trying to figure out woods for the quest. I can find the camp but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get to some of the extracts and I get turned around easily

proud flower
#

Id honestly strip the gun and buy a 7.62

fierce falcon
#

okay

bleak marten
#

im afraid of taking out my best guns, should i?

dapper galleon
proud flower
#

@safe eagle you have to cross the map from wherever you spawn. Find orientation landmarks and use em to direct yourself

#

@dapper galleon thought it was slower? The more ya know

proud flower
fierce falcon
dapper galleon
#

I use therapist to insure high ticket items I tend to bush often like nvgs or thermals

proud flower
#

@fierce falcon dismantle the gun, find a vepy in 7.62x39, rebuild the gun

safe eagle
#

Yeah, I did a run last night outskirts was my extract I ended up in a minefield by a tank. I think I was way off where I needed to be

proud flower
#

You can then use ps ammo which slaps

proud flower
fierce falcon
#

How good is this?

proud flower
#

Good. Add a WML

sand needle
#

Mag is garbage

proud flower
#

Or a laser

fierce falcon
proud flower
#

Weapon mounted light

#

Any modded gun you'll want a laser/light, but its personal preference

dapper galleon
#

Skier sells blue lasers

fierce falcon
#

alright thanks

sand needle
#

@fierce falcon red lasers are the easiest to see, thats why some people choose blue or green

proud flower
#

Also blues are cheap

sand needle
#

True

#

But greens are super hard to see so they can be worth it

dapper galleon
#

I also like how small the actual laser is on my gun. Doesn’t block any vision

sand needle
#

Yeah they can def be annoying especially depending on where they are attached

dapper galleon
#

Why I love the the dbal laser

indigo kayak
#

where is the last BP depot truck, i got the pocket watch one, crossroads one, andold gas one

dapper galleon
#

It has legit every type of laser on it

indigo kayak
#

thx

proud flower
#

@indigo kayak new gas

sand needle
#

I like putting all of the lasers i can on a gun to give that cool multi laser effect haha

dapper galleon
#

I usually run 2 blues for a easy af time to find the center of where I’m aiming

#

Guns without lasers kinda suck

proud flower
#

@indigo kayak always want a VFG, a light/laser, a sight, and ergo junk

sand needle
#

I wish this discord would just direct people to either pestilence stream or his videos lol

lunar stone
#

ok

sand needle
#

Pestillys

proud flower
#

If you cant afford that, just focus on light/vfg. If you cant afford that, dont mod the gun

#

@sand needle im at work and bored

dapper galleon
#

If I can’t afford to mod guns I buy either a moisin or shotgun

sand needle
#

@proud flower no im just saying that anytime im in here. All of these questions are answered daily or in his videos lmao

dapper galleon
#

Both work just fine as is at killing things

proud flower
#

@sand needle ya not wrong

sand needle
#

So just seems like it would be a pinned message in this chat to direct people to pestilys starter guides/specific vids lol

dapper galleon
#

Some of them are pretty outdated though

sand needle
#

All still hold weight for a brand new player

#

Which is where live comes in. He answers chats questions non stop in his stream

proud flower
#

Not everyone wants to watch a video or a Livestream ya know?

sand needle
#

Not donations. Chat

proud flower
#

People learn differently

sand needle
#

Oh I get it

wet solar
#

how do i climb the mountains to snipe rogues without getting blown up by mines?

dapper galleon
#

I learned by bashing my head into things till it worked

dapper galleon
sand needle
#

I watched a video then kept trying to imitate it till I figured it outol

dapper galleon
#

Try to hug the upper edge of the rocks till you get to this small lip where you can lay down and shoot

wet solar
#

so just stay on rocks as much as possible

#

lot of the time its unavoidable i think tho

dapper galleon
#

There isn’t mines in the rocks

#

Some areas of grass are safe

wet solar
sand needle
#

Just go website its that easy

dapper galleon
#

Cuz they are placed in areas in the hills that aren’t marked

#

So they won’t be on maps that haven’t gone outta there way to find out where they all are

#

I’m not home rn otherwise I’d be down to just run there once with ya

#

It’s a really easy route

#

Just hard to explain

@ripe harbor if you have flea then you dont need to keep hats ears and stuff like that in your storage at all if you need space

Pretty much

But can be put directly on the Ash-12

#

Isn't that new?

take the item and see how many squares it makes up

#

then find the value that item is PER SQUARE

Stack all those bags. If stuffs in em, sell it

if every square isnt for quest, hideout or at LEAST 15K sell it

who can i sell the armor too no trader will buy it

if its low dura

fence

if the armor is tier 4 and above

keep it

traders won't buy gear under 60 dura, you can only sell to fence at that point

if the items total durability doesnt go above like 50% you cant sell to those traders

oh ok 60%

you should always check if it repairs nicely before selling though, especially for the good ones

@ornate owl yeah but maximizing value for time is also important to learn, so losing that while going for a higher payout, could have given him more valuable game knowledge, rather than that 60k or so

what you do is run to the pocket watch. and then extract immidiately lol

How often do you see one drop? It used to be 1 at the beginning of the raid and one half way through

if one spawns its at a random time

They’re all kinda bad. I’d rather use magnum buck at range

junior glen
# crystal oracle Whats the best slug rounds before flea?

Take a look at the ammo table here: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics#12x70mm_anchor
I'm not sure what you can buy at level 1 traders but most slugs before .50 BMG aren't very good

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.

For the headshot scavs with shotguns quest I used lead slugs. They are pretty accurate at range

digital sable
#

and you get to loot armor that isn’t shattered when you kill people

misty ginkgo
#

Shoot head

#

One shot headshot

digital sable
#

Flechette becomes non-lethal at range pretty quick and people will survive headshots where magnum buck would kill.

misty ginkgo
#

Magnum is so boring tho, just shoot legs

rare stirrup

When you land a shot with magnum buck your target is fucked up too assuming they survive. Flechette might hurt their armor, but they’ll often walk it off
