in the road

[faint peak]

Yeah that's scav camp no?

[bold kernel]

and outside the mall

[bold kernel]

there is no exact location where they spawn

it's all random but there are more outside

[native crow]

bruh can't even use the m700 because I only have the one mag 🗿

[bold kernel]

don't lay down

[native crow]

you can, you can't be prone

[tardy nimbus]

you can top load it

[native crow]

I mean, I could

[bold kernel]

sell it

[native crow]

I don't need the money

[bold kernel]

then keep it until you can buy mags

[clear flume]

just a difference in skill

[sand needle]

you aren't accounting for the drop, the first shot was a complete wiff

[low roost]

114 key?

[sand needle]

yep thats a key alright

[low roost]

anybody have it

[sand needle]

a lot of people would i assume

that wasn't even close to his head

you shot to the bottom left of his head

between his head and his arm

[clear flume]

that hit his thorax

[sand needle]

up more on that angle

just too low tb h

deppends on the gun but yeah

also depends on angle, you were at same height so you needed to go up more, that shot would work if you were aiming down

[viscid kraken]

this wipe they made lasers so bright they're literally a beacon in night raids

[cobalt scarab]

Can you play on auto servers alone now?

[woeful spruce]

what does that mean?

[cobalt scarab]

To get in games faster you picked certain servers

At the beginning of wipe

Instead of auto

And idk if it went back

[woeful spruce]

ah, ive never had problem with that i always have auto servers

so i guess its good now

[cobalt scarab]

How long does it take u to get into a raid

[still pasture]

Is there any quickly published info on shot placement for hip firing?

Or do I just need to go offline and sus that out myself

[kindred grotto]

middle of the screen

[urban otter]

fr i need help someone carry me in eft

[still pasture]

I’ve had this feeling that the placement has been off-right and off-up on a few different guns (saiga, ak-su, FAL)

[haughty fulcrum]

Does anyone know why it takes me so long to matchmake?

[kindred grotto]

you might've been off too, might be moa idk

[still pasture]

You need to switch to manual server selection instead of auto select on the battlestate launcher screen

[haughty fulcrum]

Thanks a bunch!

[pastel trail]

experienced in the game but didn't really play lighthouse someone mind running me through it?

[candid steeple]

What items can I flip for the flea to skier for minimal money loss?

[stiff bay]

Im like level 11. Can anyone do a couple of raids with me and help me get used to the game??

[green idol]

i extracted at RUAF on customs for my scav task but it still says 0/2

[proper island]

can anyone help me find salewas

[hallow carbon]

wtf there unlimited scavs i cant play like that every raid is like 20 scavs near my location

[magic yoke]

could anyone help me sort my inventory?

[woeful spruce]

scav tasks are bugged right now

[woeful spruce]

whenever you get a quest to kill them theres 0 lol

[hallow carbon]

for sure man

[green idol]

ok ty

[hidden linden]

where do i get low profile gas block

mechanic doesnt sell

[fresh owl]

peacekeeper

[hidden linden]

oh

wiki says mechanic still

[nova yoke]

on Delivery From The Past mission does it still work if a friend opens the door in customs with the key and i take the folder? or do i have to both open and take it

[weary pagoda]

@nova yoke no he can open it

[cold fog]

folder will always be there

[hollow thorn]

is spec compass lootable

[bold kernel]

Bro I can’t find a mp-133

[hollow thorn]

go jaeger

[bold kernel]

Do I just buy it and give it in as quest ?

[hollow thorn]

depends. one of the tasks needs 2 stock mp133 but the other one needs a modded one

[bold kernel]

Wait I can’t press jaeger

He locked for me

[hollow thorn]

u dont have him unlocked yet

u need to do that task in woods

[bold kernel]

Which task is it

And I haven’t found any salewa kits in raids

[woeful spruce]

stuff in your special slots is not lootable

[hollow thorn]

ty floppa

[woeful spruce]

its a task from mechanic you can acept it when you hit lvl 2

its called introduction

[smoky moth]

Introduction, available at Mechanic, after Level 2

[bold kernel]

Oh I have that one alright Thxs

Im lvl 8

[smoky moth]

just accept all the quests my man

[woeful spruce]

there are places that have many spawn of those, i recomend crackhouse and fortress on customs or usec camp and military camp on woods

[bold kernel]

Alright

Alright Thxs

[prisma plaza]

Where should I go to try and get my Iskras/Beef stews

[crystal oracle]

Scav raid on woods

[long depot]

what do i need to add to this to get the main like trigger and that

[woeful spruce]

interchange, almost all black square weapon boxes have a guaranteed iskra on interchange and in the north part of the goshan store many beef stews spawn

[prisma plaza]

okay perfect thats the map I thought so loading in now, thanks for confirming that for me 😄

[woeful spruce]

you need the gun itself, the game considers the lower reciever the gun and the stuff you have is just mods that would go on it

[chrome raptor]

is it worth using dorms marked or should i just sell it

[woeful spruce]

theres is curently no way to get just the g28 reciever alone

[long depot]

damn

[woeful spruce]

if you like going customs and want to get some loot like injector cases or keykard holdders its worth using

if you dont run customs a lot and need money sell it

but keep in mind its required for that one quest with marking marked circles

[chrome raptor]

its only 10 uses tho

does it still not spawn keycards and big cases?

[woeful spruce]

im not sure dont have it but i havent hear about them changing marked rooms from last wipe

so i assume its the same

[whole thistle]

No

No keycards at all and only stuff like docs and ammo case afaik

[bold kernel]

Anyone able to help somone out getting the game XD beginner quest ?

[sullen oar]

Someone Wanna Help Me With a Woods Quest really fast Idk map too Well

[topaz trout]

whats the best way to kill tagilla

[woeful spruce]

you can shoot his knees with mag buckshot a bunch

[viral lion]

first scav raid for the day

[woeful spruce]

i usually just magdump into him and hope for the best works 50% of the time

[frosty veldt]

U know kills on factory

should u take in gear

dosent even feel useful just getting heads eye all the time i swtf

[storm wren]

Nice m1!!

[woeful spruce]

factory do be like that, you gotta be the one giving the head eyes

gear is kinda good as theres still a bunch of pistoling is there

[prisma plaza]

@woeful spruce I got all the iskras aha just need my stews

[woeful spruce]

so an armor can save you\

[woeful spruce]

good job

[prisma plaza]

See what you mean about the weapon boxes

[ocean whale]

[frosty veldt]

Bruh my aim is sooo bad idk

[cold fog]

looks like it, yeah

no idea what the drop rate is like tho

[tough grove]

youve gotten one?

[icy quartz]

I think I got three from stashes last wipe, so pretty low

[tough grove]

i got some last wipe but i herd they changed it

[cold fog]

if you want flash drives I recommend safes

that's where I find most of mine

[bold kernel]

what this key for

[icy quartz]

They are also in filing cabinets

[bold kernel]

and my gun jammed mid fight is there anyway to unjam it

[edgy plover]

Inspect (L) and then clear (Shift+T)

[viral lion]

wtf never knew that tagilla camp corners

[bold kernel]

Damn thx

[edgy plover]

I'd suggest setting those keybinds to something more ergonomic and easy to remember when in the moment. Maybe L to inspect and Double-Click L to clear

[bold kernel]

Alright thxz

[nova yoke]

can you do missions with scav?

[limber notch]

speaking of tagilla, is he still broken?

[icy quartz]

No.

[edgy plover]

Not most of them - you can find generic items (Mp-133 shotguns, salewas, t-plugs, etc.) as a scav and turn those in for tasks; but any tasks that require you to kill anything or find specific task items (Jaeger's message, Prapors golden pocketwatch, skiers lighter) or go to specific places can only be done as a PMC

[woeful spruce]

how do you define broken

[narrow gull]

he forgets to shoot you sometimes

[woeful spruce]

then yea

[limber shoal]

special slots are for items people cant take when i die right?

[rancid nova]

yea

[woeful spruce]

yea, they hold some quest specific items: markers jammers cameras leatherman multitool. or suport items: rangefinder or compass

[limber notch]

like is he still super ez to kill

[limber shoal]

ight thanks

[woeful spruce]

i think intel center 2 needs them

[smoky moth]

save 5 flash drives for quests

[woeful spruce]

yea, of course the tasks are more important

[edgy plover]

Couple good barters for them as well - if they're not FIR. Dogtag case from Jaeger is a good one. You can take a look on the wiki page

[woeful spruce]

late wipe you can craft intels with them

[frosty veldt]

Any tips for the office kills I think ive lost about 500k with ktis doing it

[woeful spruce]

idk i did mine by shouting some voicelines in the bottom floor of ofice and killing whoever came in

[edgy plover]

Mp-153/Beneli + buckshot + Passion for claiming knees = profit

[daring bison]

is there actually any detriment to killing scavs as a player-scav? I never do it but I'm always gettin capped by other player scavs

[haughty belfry]

my internet ass i get packet loss alot

[woeful spruce]

there is, it decreases your scav carma which is repreented by your standing with fence

[edgy plover]

Pros of good Karma: Better Scav Karma means better scavs, quicker cooldowns and better gear on average. Quicker scav cases, cheaper extracts, and if you get to 6.0 karma bosses are friendly and a special fence market unlocks, though that's certainly not the primary benefit.
Cons of good Karma: You get executed by mean scavs from time to time and just have to take it.
Pros of Bad Karma: You can kill anyone you want and get their gear, which can be really helpful depending on your ability to fight scavs.
Cons of bad Karma: Worsening timers, worsening gear, slower scav cases, more expensive extracts and and -6.0 everything will treat you as hostile on sight.
You gain Karma by extracting as a scav without killing peaceful scavs, using car or scav+pmc extracs, killing PMCs as a scav.
You lose Karma by killing peaceful scavs as a scav.

[haughty belfry]

ur fat

[frosty veldt]

Ye my SR has been dropping over time the more im playing wipe 😦

[rancid nova]

i had no idea, i always killed them lol

[frosty veldt]

ive gone from 40% -> 20% recently

[rancid nova]

anyone wanna help with quests ? customs for example, im lvl 12

[haughty belfry]

any fixes to highpacket loss

[sand needle]

finally got my red rebel jeez

[daring bison]

scav cases?

like the junk box or something else?

[sand needle]

thats a hideout upgrade

[vague sparrow]

hey anyone wanna help me learn reserve ?

[sand needle]

you pay money or intelligence, and in x amount of time they bring you found in raid items

and with good karma you get better stuff faster

[daring bison]

oh ok, well I'll continue being a good little scav boi even though I get executed lol

[sand needle]

yeah see i just get rich as fast as possible so scav rep doesnt help me

[vague sparrow]

They should make it so if u get killed by a player scav ur scav karma acc goes up

[frosty veldt]

Nah bro

Ive manage to blow thru 500K worth of just shotguns doing office kills

Im so bad at pvp 💀

[clear flume]

dont forget with +6.0 karma bosses are friendly

so you can use them as bait or loot generators

[frosty veldt]

My main goal of this wipe is to get good at PVP thjo

and get kappa first time

[daring bison]

Is there a way to check scav karma?

[vague sparrow]

i think its ur fence rep

i could be ewrong

[edgy plover]

Correct - Fence's rep is the same as scav karma

[frosty veldt]

Ye scav karma is fence rep

[vague sparrow]

damn icl i guessed LMAOO

[daring bison]

thanks for the tips 👍

[zenith wadi]

why cant i join avc

[vague sparrow]

i knew it was someones rep but i was not sure whos xD

[vague sparrow]

you need to verify

[zenith wadi]

i am

[sand needle]

and if you get scav karma high enough you can make bosses follwo you lol

[vague sparrow]

you have not got the PMC role

[cedar musk]

what is the best item to buy from peacekeeper and sell back for rep?

[zenith wadi]

how do i get it

[vague sparrow]

i think many in #521628660298678283 im not too sure tbh

maby*

[edgy plover]

You can't get rep buying and selling - but if you're just increasing money spent then just buy USD. It's converting your currency into one that you'll definitely be using later, so you don't lose any money, you just convert it.

[cedar musk]

Sorry yea thats what I meant my B lol, also thanks for the info!

[eager mist]

any other shoreline/customs keys i should get?

[cold fog]

bruh its like impossible to get anything good for the mosin without doing the tarkov shooter quests

kill me

[eager mist]

headshot. it one shots through teir 6 headgear mate xD

[limber shoal]

does the xp i get when i do a scav run not count towards my main character?

[eager mist]

only for scav level

ur scav and pmc have different levels.

[limber shoal]

it doesnt let me see the scav level

[eager mist]

it only shows you when youre in game

[edgy plover]

You can only see it when you're actively playing as your scav - and you check the skills page

[eager mist]

click on this tab when in game

[limber shoal]

ok thank you

[cold fog]

oh, its less that I'm having trouble with the tasks

just wanted to mod out a mosin to raise my sniper level

and all the archangel mods are locked behind this task lmao

[woeful spruce]

archangel stock is overrated, rifle is fine

infantry mosin and a full stack of bullets in your pockets jsut keep spamming reload and your sniper level will be up in no time

[rancid nova]

why are people so rude and hectic

found like 1/10 who are patient enough to play with regularly

[woeful spruce]

most people dont like playing regularly with people who arent their friends

its pretty normal

[violet crystal]

this ^^

[rancid nova]

no i meant like

i join a big group for factory, i accidentaly do one mistake and its like "dude bro, come on dude bro" then kicked me

[delicate wren]

some people just have no patience

[rancid nova]

i guess so

[delicate wren]

i remember i went to a beginners channel once to get help extracting when i first started, and they were making fun of me that i didnt know how to do it

like

ok

[rancid nova]

lol

when i played most i got lvl 55 so i know the game well, but im not very good at combat always

shouldnt make fun of new players, its a steep uphill

[delicate wren]

yeah same here

[woeful spruce]

theres some real toxic people on this server and some of them insist on being in the beginers aistance section and vaice channels for whatever reason

[limber notch]

ahaha Bakezy has probably the best streamer item in the game xD

[rancid nova]

yea lol

[limber notch]

the qr code even links to his YT

[woeful spruce]

they made the back of the book his twitch bio

[limber notch]

yeah

[woeful spruce]

i think its overall the best streamer item

[limber notch]

mhm I agree

Do steamers have a say on the item?

[woeful spruce]

tho the general sam artwork on his cola also slapps

[limber notch]

general sam is cool yeah

[woeful spruce]

i think so tho im not sure i remember aqua fps saying he intentionally asked for his streamer item to be as large as possible to make it annoying to colect for kappa

[limber notch]

a very aquafps move

[clear flume]

thats an aqua moment

[limber notch]

with a fitting name 'Loot Lord'

becuase u cant hold any loot

[clear flume]

he is the loot

[limber notch]

yes

[limber shoal]

bruhh i was close to extracting the pocket watch and a scav stuck in a corner one shots me

[placid hedge]

just ran into a level 29 bush camper on interchange

[placid sentinel]

quick question: do reuseable tools have infinite reuse? or do they break at some point

[placid hedge]

99% sure they are infinite

[junior glen]

They are

[placid sentinel]

okey doke, ty

thats neat of them to add

[neat flicker]

the first shot recoil is really high, tap firing feels really difficult

is it done that way to incentivize full auto?

[icy swan]

Which gun?

[neat flicker]

just any gun

m4s, aks, etc

[orchid dagger]

Does anybody know which mission(s) i have to complete to get ap-20 rounds?

[neat flicker]

I probably just need more experience

[clear flume]

i never understood why first shot recoil was so high

[neat flicker]

to learn to control it

[clear flume]

normally that would be the most controllable shot

then get worse as you fire more

[icy swan]

Indeed. Some guns are worse than others. Caliber and recoil mods all have an impact.

[neat flicker]

I don’t think I’m going to kit anything out proper for a while

I’d like to get w grips with the basics first

[icy swan]

Grips and Stocks

Muzzle adapters

Some ammo types as well.

[neat flicker]

ok, so I just died in a raid, but I didn't feel my heartbeat raising to a gazzillion while I was playing, and I played calm

which is progress!

[rain sequoia]

Nice!

[nova sentinel]

did they make base recoil lower this wipe

atleast vss is lower

[neat flicker]

yeah I'm feeling like i'm playing calmer, not any better but before I was genuinlly scared all the time

I think it's because I'm playing pmc more, intentionally running my decent stuff so I can learn how to get stuff back

that's something I might need to ask about soon...

Something I want to ask about though, is when should I be running and when should I be slow?

[ivory lava]

i just got a svds that looked expensive asf but then died like 10 seconds before i was going to extract

[neat flicker]

In that raid I heard shots nearby so i took it real slow, and I got caught out anyway and got killed. Would it have been better if I ran?

[dire monolith]

A man like myself would run towards the bullets

[ivory lava]

i would run away scared xD

[daring stag]

fuckin inventory errors

[sonic ermine]

anyone have RB-ST? I can help with any other keys or quests just msg me and we can figure something out! 🙂

[ivory lava]

i have a labs access keycard is it good

im scared to use it

[daring stag]

why do you need rb st key?

[placid hedge]

anyone know what the unknown reward is from friend from the west part 2

[neat flicker]

that recoil is so high

ok..

I can't see the guy when I shoot

[nova sentinel]

they should make base recoil lower and minimum potential recoil higher so u cant make it into a laser beam with a couple mods

and isnt m4 and ak recoil a lot lower irl

[clear flume]

yes

consierably

5.45 AK's hardly move

[nova sentinel]

dats wat i thought

[clear flume]

just backwards with a lil shove

AR's dont move at all

[raven lake]

switch it to single shot in stead of spraying from that far distance when you dont have a sight other then the iron sight

[nova sentinel]

except dat boring full auto is intense and epic thoo

[raven lake]

but thats a waste of ammo

[nova sentinel]

small price to pay for rambo rp

[neat flicker]

even if I did tap fire, the kick is insane

[placid hedge]

shooting over someones head and missing and dying is pretty sweet

[bold kernel]

is anyones quest glitched i turned in a salewa and it didnt pop up happened twice now

[raven lake]

thats why i sell the M4A1 and mp5 at the beginning and rock with a sks then go from there

[neat flicker]

right

[raven lake]

its not worth to use the m4 when you dont have a sight on it. either keep it in stash or sell tbh

[neat flicker]

btw is it ranged to shoot slightly above the iron sight block bit?

[nova sentinel]

if theyd make minimum potential recoil higher it think there would be more different kinds of guns not just meta akm or mutant build

[raven lake]

wym?

[ivory lava]

bruh im so dumb i deleted like 5 dogtags that were level 8+

[empty hemlock]

Can i sell pc parts to traders?

[bold kernel]

yea

dont sell gpu

[empty hemlock]

which trader

[bold kernel]

therapist

[boreal fern]

Sks is my baby, none of the guys I play with take them so I get to hoard em, that and saigas obviously

[raven lake]

they are the best to start out with tbh

[steel grove]

best spot for LEDx?

[neat flicker]

well that was embarassing..... I was holding an angle after getting my first scav kill, then i turn around and someone is literally about to execute me via headshot

[boreal fern]

I just today found out there’s a 20rd mag for them, clearly came lmao

[edgy plover]

Ultramed, aidrops, or resort rooms

[neat flicker]

and my activate windows text blocks the ammo counter text :/

[boreal fern]

Deactivate windows then

[raven lake]

lmao i love them

[neat flicker]

I seriously have a lot to learn lol

[raven lake]

ad a scope to one of them and its the perfect gun!

[neat flicker]

I'm clueless in most situations

[icy swan]

SKS has 30 rd Mags

Err 35 rd

[boreal fern]

What.

Who sells/what level

[edgy plover]

They can't be dropped

Thats a shame

[placid hedge]

game hates friends helping each other

[crystal oracle]

Any good loot spots?

For thm

them*

[edgy plover]

Interchange shelves in goshan, tech crates, toolboxes, seen quite a few in shoreline swamp

[icy swan]

Whos dropping an AWL even if it was droppable? Cra cra PMCs thats who.

[lofty falcon]

for jeagers quest where you have too kill scavs with the iron sights on a bolt action can it be the iron sights of that 4x scope with irons on top of it?

[crystal oracle]

No scopes, just plain iron sights

[neat flicker]

I was getting shot by something big, ran away and bumped into an enemy player, god this game is hard

[crystal oracle]

Tyty

[crystal oracle]

Yep, it always will be. Until you get the hang of it

[neat flicker]

I’m definetely getting to the point where I would have lost all my stuff

I need to learn what to do when I get to that point

[tender lotus]

yo gimme the name of the attachement that you guys use to store more attachements in 1 single slot like lasers , foregrip etc

[potent crater]

its some aks74u rail i think

[edgy plover]

If you mount the XRS74U handguard onto a gas block, you get a one-slot item that can hold 2 scopes, 2 flashlights, and 1 foregrip

[tender lotus]

TRAX industries , i found it

yeah , the xrs is also good choice , ty

[edgy plover]

xrs can hold 2 scopes, one of them can be an LPVO like a valday - which makes it quite useful

[clear flume]

cant it also be put in your container?

[edgy plover]

Yes

[clear flume]

i though they fixed that

[edgy plover]

Still workin

[sand needle]

its funny how people dont realize this, and wonder how after 2 hours of farming i bought a red rebel lol

selling valdays and grips baby

[edgy plover]

so dang profitable

[sand needle]

yep 2 hours of reserve = me 1 red rebel

now reserve will be even easier

im sure you can do it on all maps though

[edgy plover]

prevents A D spam

[placid hedge]

good item spawns and worth having if you run resort alot

[potent crater]

I only have 350k bro

[limber notch]

poor

im kidding, just do some safe runs or something

[neat flicker]

i'm beginning to lose everything i own

[edgy plover]

Money is very easy to make. If you want to guarantee profit, you can always enter the cycle of scavving and offline-PMCing. Scavving can only make you money, you can't lose anything. Offline is great for learning maps and getting good at killing scavs and scav bosses. This cycle is great to simply build up lots of money quickly while learning - which makes PMCing far easier.

[neat flicker]

I don’t think I’ve managed to make any money at all now I’m thinking about it

I want to take things slow but I ultimately just don’t know where to go

[edgy plover]

Practice loot runs in offline - execute them first in scav raids - then take them to online PMC raids

[bold kernel]

find ppl to play with and what he said scav runs

[potent crater]

anyone got tips for getting flash drives? im level 15 and still need all 5

[bold kernel]

thats how im getting the hang of the game

[edgy plover]

buy the dorm safe keys, farm those. I usually find a couple every run

[frank junco]

filing cabinets

[potent crater]

how expensive are those im so broke rn

[edgy plover]

105,110,114,204,214 -- Check the flea, some of them are cheaper than others but if you can just get a couple then you'll find em quick

[potent crater]

I already have 114 which I know is the safe key EVERYONE wants beause of the task

[edgy plover]

Thats the most expensive and rarest - so it will most likely be unchecked often

[queen depot]

who has tarcone, dorm 114, and dorm 206

[potent crater]

IO think it means 206

[queen depot]

yea 206

What are purple items?

Background colors are fairly ambiguous, purple items are often times streamer items - but purple items are always valuable, so take them if possible if only to sell

[potent crater]

some purple keys i think are useless

[wary vortex]

do you think i should start learning interchange or reserves next? woods aint cutting it for making money

[edgy plover]

Yea the rule doesn't follow for keys

[shrewd ocean]

are these keys worth anything, i need the money tbf and dont see a use for them yet

[potent crater]

bro scavs breach doors???

[edgy plover]

You just have to check them on the wiki

[edgy plover]

If you don't plan on running reserve, Shoreline, or Labs much then they're fine to sell

[thin frigate]

are scav times still atrocious? I tried to scav on reserve to help learn the map but I wait 10+ mins and no guarantee I'll get in there either

[limber cliff]

does anyone have a gzhel?

[edgy plover]

Reserve is an awesome scav map, but pretty meh as a PMC because of how hard extractions are. Interchange is great to know for both scavs and PMC's, not quite as nice as Reserve for scavs though IMO

[wary vortex]

ok ive already played reserve a couple times so ill try sticking with it

thanks

[candid sentinel]

what do i do as pmc everyone kills me every time i spawn in

[thin frigate]

kill them first or get to cover lol

[edgy plover]

Learn where you die. Avoid that area the next time. Trial and error your way into success, repeat that method, keep honing yourself

[candid sentinel]

ok

[shrewd ocean]

about running shoreline, i read on an interactive map that the 303 key door is always open so i got real confused. is that true

[edgy plover]

Oh yea, some keys are totally useless and I think that's one of them

[bold kernel]

any advice for morphines i keep trying crack house on customs but get killed

any places that are less known

[clear flume]

med camp on woods

[ruby python]

there's other medspawns you can check out

[clear flume]

not less known

[thin frigate]

I think reserve has better spawns for meds in the one building

[clear flume]

but often more chill

minus scavs

[bold kernel]

ill try that

[zinc crane]

watch out for bush wookies if you're running to outskirts along coastline

lost fir on a couple salewas that way 😦

[glad trail]

im new but im looking for a duo or trio anyone down?

[candid sentinel]

sure

[jade prairie]

i just found 2 bunkhouse keys, and i know theyre super hgih in demand rn, so i kept 1 for myself to do the prapor quest, and i just dont know which good key to trade it for

[bold kernel]

Does anyone want to help me find some supplies for my hideout? I'm having the worse luck 😦

[austere ledge]

Lighthouse has ALOT of medspawns.

[neat flicker]

i survived a raid finally, felt more like luck than anything else

has anyone got that list of hideout items handy?

[lofty hazel]

LFG 21+ to play with i played when the game first launched an haven't played much yet. just looking for a group to crack jokes and have a good time with.

[split sinew]

Not sure if this is the most updated, but I use this one
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/images/3/39/Hideout-Requirements-Items-to-Keep.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20211002124130

[icy quartz]

Its missing the vitamins and salt

So its slightly out of date

[neat flicker]

cheers

[split sinew]

Oh dang, so def not updated! That is good to know!

[kindred lantern]

Does anyone want to do the therapist disease history? I have KSM and need SMP (NA servers)

[icy quartz]

Also damn there are so many traitor scavs lately

[split sinew]

Been running into a lot of them too, so many itchy trigger fingers haha

[icy quartz]

There was a guy camping the checkpoint fence extract on reserve

[fleet pond]

I know there are hacks that let people see other's inventory

I've never got killed by traitor scavs when got a bunch of trash on me

I just got killed immediately when I found a vector

The other time was when I spawned with a lab keycard

So many cheaters

[icy quartz]

Yeah they can see your inventory

They can fly

They can kill you with a press of a button

Like not even with a gun, they just push a button and you take damage until you die

[fleet pond]

I think the scav killed me are just one of those fuckers

[icy quartz]

Perhaps they arent actually cheating

Perhaps you should apply hanlons razor to this situation

Also you can see guns on your back

[faint peak]

Does turning Power on speedup Hideout upgrade times?

[icy quartz]

No.

[faint peak]

ah ok :(

[icy quartz]

You are stuck waiting 16+ hours for some of this stuff.

[fleet pond]

no the vector is in my backpack

Keycard too

And the first time I saw him he didn't do anything

[icy quartz]

Eh, ive been killed with nothing in my inventory before.

[fleet pond]

Then I stopped to loot a corpse, he shot me in the back

[faint peak]

How am I crafting this when my power is off?

I thought i needed to turn the power on to craft

What's the point of power then?

[clear flume]

speeds it up

[kindred grotto]

You can craft with lavratory without power right?

[faint peak]

The timer is going at the same rate whether it's On/Off though?

[candid sentinel]

im doing a scav run om factory dose anyone want to come

[fleet pond]

on factory wut

[rain sequoia]

IIRC, you only need power on to start fast, and can turn it off once started.

[kindred grotto]

you can craft with lavratory without power

[potent crater]

these are FiR so would it be worth buying the 3 horses for docs case if im going to be pushing for kappa this wipe?

and does anyone have a picture of all items needed for kappa INCLUDING THE NEW items?

[dire monolith]

Yeah I got a picture

[clear flume]

pretty sure the wiki will have one

[mint light]

lima beans

[dire monolith]

Nope

[wary vortex]

should i wait until i unlock the flea market to focus on my hideout?

[clear flume]

yes

[dire monolith]

Not really you can gather the items now

The flea just helps

Green is food

[fervent ermine]

White didn’t call anything for me

[placid hedge]

i know i can get rid of some stuff but im trying to keep shit for late game since i havent been spending money

[hallow carbon]

its just me or when u kill raider and take his loot another raider come right after u grabbing the dead raider loot wtf???

[fervent ermine]

They do

[hallow carbon]

and makes u nothing to do then accept the death because they are too smart and headshot u without u move because u loot the raider

[fervent ermine]

Should kill wll of them before looting

Like with pmcs

[hallow carbon]

i check the area i didnt see no one just when i loot he come and headshot me

[fervent ermine]

Don’t loot before killing everything

I thought this was a given tbf

[candid sentinel]

running interchange as pmc anyone want to join

[ancient shore]

This game has yet to load me into a match. I've waited 10 min in loading screen before it kicks me to menu. Have yet to get to play for the past hour, must be game breaking bug.

[fervent ermine]

Which servers

[candid token]

I gotta be doing something wrong. I can't seem to hit anyone on full auto no matter the distance

just missed 47/48 shots from a UMP at a dude that was near point blank on full auto

is there any real advice for aiming because apparently a red dot doesn't mean shit

or a laser point

[fervent ermine]

Hipfire close range

And use laser/ir searchlight

[candid token]

I should have recoreded

I used the laser lol

didn't work

[fervent ermine]

Were you hipfiring?

[ancient shore]

@fervent ermine auto USA

[candid token]

yes

I was

[fervent ermine]

I think usa servers are fucked, most us players i know have fucked queue times

You were probably unlucky, happens, or it was desync and it looked like you hit on your screen but you missed

[candid token]

yeah idk anymore. Everyone else seems to be aim gods while I can;t hit a fucking wall standing next to it

[valid trout]

i used it

it was a genral supplies

pretty good

[frosty tree]

For the quest find the generators on shoreline, I have a problem I can't validate the generator of the 220/219

[torn copper]

what are the best heals at the start of the wipe?

[icy quartz]

Grizzly/surv12

[torn copper]

where do u even get that

[potent crater]

are you standard edition or eod?

[torn copper]

standard

[potent crater]

Overall I would say some form of one slot PK in alpha, a cms in alpha, and an ifak or afak in pouch then a bandage and esmarch in pockets + a splint if you want it

[dense pagoda]

any tips for granaider?

[potent crater]

use impacts if you can, if not use vog 25 on factory

if you are focusing it but if not just do it passivley

[dense pagoda]

im using vogs

[potent crater]

ok then go to factor

[dense pagoda]

but im still getting clapped

do i go naked?

[potent crater]

yes

1-3 nades per time

[dense pagoda]

ok bet

[potent crater]

do you know glass hallway spawn?

[dense pagoda]

yea

[solemn marten]

is eod worth it

[dense pagoda]

yes

[potent crater]

know the spawn right beside it like not forklift the other one?

like the one near gate 3

[dense pagoda]

yea

just rush there every game?

were can i get impacts

[solemn marten]

its like a 100$ though

[dense pagoda]

or can u only get them in raid

[potent crater]

no if you get that spawn the spawn in like front of gate 3 then the spawn in glass hallway still can happen but no one worries about it so push glass hallway spawn and if someone is there they prolly wont see you

do you get what im saying?

[dense pagoda]

not really

[potent crater]

want me to show you in a vc

[dense pagoda]

just push up glass hall

[potent crater]

n

o

[dense pagoda]

yea

[frosty veldt]

Should u buy stuff for hideout or collect all the items ?

[pulsar hamlet]

buying if you can afford

[zinc canopy]

Collect what you can buy the rest and sell what’s not needed

[torn copper]

but how do i get those meds. i can only buy cheese

[pulsar hamlet]

crafting in medstation in hideout can provide a lot of that stuff

[slow basin]

are there any boomer tarkov communities out there with older people?

[placid saddle]

lvl 13 drip

[potent crater]

I dont think? are you super old and want to play with super old people?

[potent crater]

tbh i wouldnt worry about getting good meds I would find a skilled teamate to help you in raids and ask him for advice

[warped palm]

Hwy

[potent crater]

hey

[slow basin]

just a 28 year old dad. I've ran into a couple toxic 18 year olds so just looking for older people to play with

[analog juniper]

Should you keep dogtags that are under lvl. 8?
Right now I can only trade lvl. 8 dogtags for an MPX.

[ruby adder]

I believe I have met just one toxic person so far, this is my 2nd wipe.. I'd say the community minus a few bad eggs is chill asf

[slow basin]

I just had a younger kid tell me how I didn't back him up after he got shot from a mile away, call me trash, and then block me.

[potent crater]

tha dude is just a dick head

and 28 isnt very old

just play with people and if you are new let them know

if you said you were new or even didnt that guy was just a dick

[ruby adder]

How dare you, you monster not back up your own team mate 🤣

[potent crater]

i dont even know what his teamate meant?

did he want him to like snipe back or what

I think ariwingmarine has some good videos on stuff like that

I reccomend paca IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY

[placid hedge]

[cyan apex]

U gotta mention servers

And your level

[fleet pond]

[green portal]

Hello everyone. How are you all doing? My name is MissingNoL, and I come bearing a question. You see, I was given this task by Therapist, the one who sells medicine for the people. She had me retrieve a file folder from the wooded area on the Woods map, you know, the one with the snipers. However, Skier has presented himself a rather interesting opportunity for me: I give him the file folder instead, and he gives me more money and EXP. However, Therapist is doing this for the good of the people, and I wish not to wrong her. However, the money and EXP in these troubling times is sure worth the investment, I'm sure. This begs the question: who should I give the folder to? Please let me know by mentioning me (@green portal) so I can turn it in in a timely manner. God speed.

[cyan apex]

They have a guaranteed spaw

[pseudo abyss]

skier

[green portal]

ty

[cyan apex]

For now skier for money, but in future. They planning on if u brake trust of one trader he might get locked perm.

[fleet pond]

Jesus why am I getting 36min scav runs

That bascially means dead

[limber cliff]

[placid hedge]

is the new area on light house a high pvp area?

[mint light]

.

[hidden linden]

when i try to buy 3.66 compensator it just says offer sold out

but its not

[icy quartz]

Yeah, its a bug

Somethings are perpetually sold out

Like the black card barter, or the reap-ir scope

[brittle path]

beware when reach level 18ish the tasks chemical 4 out of curiosity and big customer cause you to lose rep if you accept more than one so chose one of the three personally I recommend therapist if u don't have an injectors.

[mint light]

black room so sexy

[brittle path]

if you accept more than one of the three tasks it will costs you .25 rep per which can really hurt u non eods

[fervent ermine]

I think it’s bugged, you dont lose rep rn

[mint light]

i miss 4x4 injector case

[brittle path]

[untold elm]

[fervent ermine]

The black barter is ll4 now

[mint light]

is it

[fervent ermine]

Yep

[mint light]

they need to stop going backwards

[fervent ermine]

Apparently they nerfed it according to wized’s friend

3 stims per run apparently

[potent crater]

if i am pushing for kappa this wipe is gonna matter that im so down bad because im putting money into hideout and getting task keys so isnt it just gonna be better in the long run

[untold elm]

how can i level up when half my tasks are literally impossible to do lol

[potent crater]

what tasks/

[untold elm]

i need to do the water one in doors and the bronze pocketwatch

[potent crater]

oh those are easy

a lot of people have water key

and the bronze pocket watch key has a 100% key spawn

just run to dorms or find osmeone who has them

[untold elm]

oh right nice one

[potent crater]

???

[untold elm]

also is tasks the way to go to level up?

[potent crater]

yes

100% of the time

[untold elm]

ok thanks

[icy quartz]

Its also a great way to get yourself killed

Because im at the point where my tasks keep sending me to the health resort

[cyan apex]

Or u can actually find some loot

[fleet pond]

someone was behind me the entire time while I am trying to figure out where I was

[cyan apex]

F

But still better than 8 mins left in raid lol

[outer hornet]

i just brought the game and its saying that i dont have the game on the launcher, does it take a minuet to register to the launcher

[fleet pond]

I found 19min the best timing

usually

it's the time when pmcs are looking for extract

So it's mostly safe

[cyan apex]

Lucky

[cyan apex]

If you just bought the game, go to your profile. Download game launcher. Install the game from launcher. Suffer.

[outer hornet]

i did

[outer hornet]

im on my profile and it says it isnt even purchased

[outer hornet]

but i have the email?

[cyan apex]

Try refreshing

Or log out/in

[outer hornet]

it isnt working

i had the message where it said welcome to beta testing

now its gone idk thy

[junior glen]

Why do people buy tank battery off the flea? Isn't it's only use Bitcoin farm 3?

[potent crater]

crafts too they could be crafting car battery for the thera task

[cyan apex]

I would wait like 5-10 mins. If its still not there. Contact BSG

[lofty hull]

What's the largest and smallest map?

[junior glen]

true thanks

[outer hornet]

ok im kinda flipping my shit rn

[potent crater]

factory and woods i believe

[cyan apex]

Largest - wood/shorline. Small - factory

[potent crater]

ur gonna get the game dont worry bro

I would just be worried about having to own the game

[cyan apex]

Gl dude, hope it works for u

[outer hornet]

also its been 13 minuets

[potent crater]

any new players need help with tasks?

I also got some keys for some tasks

[potent crater]

and black card barter and beta container

[small wraith]

ive had shit day bush campers and everything like no luck what do

[potent crater]

?

[small wraith]

i dont know how to get into good gunfights and stuff i have shit loot and it feels not worth to play the wipe anymore

[potent crater]

are you new?

[small wraith]

somewhat

i want to be able to play the game and have fun even when i die i usually just end up being led by some random dude or just going with a friend and i dont get any progress really

[junior glen]

do you mostly play in a squad? have you tried progressing solo?

[potent crater]

I can help you if you want I Have some keys but idk if you want help from someone so if you dont want to go on a raid with someone I Would just reccomend scavving a lot to get more money and loot

[small wraith]

played solo in a duo and a full 4 man

[small wraith]

i mean scavving is hard aswell i use mapgeanie so i guess that kinda helps

[fleet pond]

I think for gunfight it really takes time

[potent crater]

go into an offline and learn a map from a map guide on youtube

like pestily has some good ones

[fleet pond]

Once you die enough time you know how to kill others

[small wraith]

is it worth to even do offline?

[potent crater]

YES

very worth it that is how I learned all my maps

you just have to do it once or twice to know the maps forever

[small wraith]

all the cases and stashes are there but have no loot right

[brave echo]

yes, run around with minimal gear so your stamina comes back faster

[potent crater]

they have loot but you dont keep it

[small wraith]

ah ok

[brave echo]

you cant keep it, it resets like you never deployed

[potent crater]

and carry food, water and meds

[small wraith]

i would do nothing but a pistol on factory with my friend and we got some kills lol

[brave echo]

pistolrunning is awesome

theres a quest for it, "Stirrup"

[small wraith]

fast asf

high reward possibility

i got an ak out of a crate was awesome

[mint light]

[clear flume]

[mint light]

[clear flume]

[open hedge]

[mint light]

[open hedge]

[mint light]

[clear flume]

[fleet pond]

one shot by scav again when heading to extract

I hate this

do you still get xp even if you die in raid?

[mint light]

yeah

its like half iirc

[thin frigate]

whats the best loadout to run for the pistol kills on pmcs? I'm assuming just run factory with a pistol until you get it?

[ornate owl]

does chemical 4 still fuck up rep

[haughty fulcrum]

Does anyone know why it takes so long to find a match?

[sharp pagoda]

I just purchased the game and was trying to get into a scav but queue times for me in Western US was over 15 min too

[haughty fulcrum]

I have all us server selected and I have yet to get into a game

[brisk wharf]

No problem on EU servers for me, max raid find time is like 3-4 mins

[haughty fulcrum]

5 min to find a match is still long

[ornate owl]

tarkov just sucks lol

nothin you can really do about it

not that i know of at least

[elfin hearth]

can someone help me plant the docs on factory

[sullen oar]

can someone help me with the Jaeger quest? dont know the map too well

[pale hollow]

Do you have to get the folder again after you extracted with it and died in factory with delivery from the past?

[elder wedge]

yea

[elfin hearth]

yes

[pale hollow]

really

[elder wedge]

yep

[sharp pagoda]

Does anyone know why I have a count down timer (25m) before I can play Scav again? Sorry, I'm new, just got the game today.

[elder wedge]

its just a general timer before you can scav again

[sharp pagoda]

wow 😦

Thanks for answering my question, appreciate it

[elder wedge]

if you get more scav rep, the timer has a reduction

[sharp pagoda]

ah

[brisk wharf]

Also if you build intelligence center

[elder wedge]

what level are you?

[elder wedge]

^

[brisk wharf]

+besides lowering the scav timer intelligence center gives scav quests that gives fence rep

@sharp pagoda

[sharp pagoda]

01, literally just purchased it, trying to get my legs xD

[elder wedge]

play as your pmc

your heal is free for the first 30 raids

and there is no timer

also examine the items from all traders to get you to level 2

[sharp pagoda]

I did one PMC raid but died quickly and lost my gear, I was worried about running out of items

[brisk wharf]

examining all the items from traders might not be enough (wasnt for me) so try fence + double click on weapons and examine their parts

[brisk wharf]

you will run out of items, but will get items thats basically how it works :P

[elder wedge]

i just kept refreshing fence cause i was a little short

[brisk wharf]

mine was when wipe started so not a lot of items on fence 😄

[elder wedge]

you could always do money runs

[elder wedge]

fair, i started like 4 hours after wipe due to summer school

[native crow]

guess what your boy spawned with on his scav run, I'm fuckign jizzing rn

[brisk wharf]

get to level 2 by examining and get quest from mechanic
Do not crouch when playing as your PMC,
Do not fear to lose/run out of items, you will find most of them and even better ones
Try avoiding pvp and doing your tasks to advance @sharp pagoda

[stoic wren]

anyone else having difficulty finding a scav run

[elder wedge]

yea im assuming everyone is playing pmc for quests

[sharp pagoda]

Ok, thanks for the tips

[native crow]

-0.15 relationship with fence too wtf

[elder wedge]

can someone help me with bad rep evidence?

[fast lion]

Sorry to interrupt, supposed if I am too poor to afford flechette what buck should I use from lv1 jager?

[ornate owl]

7mm

[native crow]

when should I do a lab run

[ornate owl]

now

[native crow]

what gun should I use, I only have level 1 traders

[brisk wharf]

if you have fir labs card, save it for quest

[elder wedge]

go butt booty naked with only a body armor

melee raiders to death for fun

[native crow]

I'mma get those naked ass cheeks clapped

[elder wedge]

just wait to get a good kit

[native crow]

My armor is good, just not my gun, which is unfortunate

[elder wedge]

i don't know what guns you like but maybe a good m4 with good armor and rig

[topaz trout]

why isnt mk12 gasblock l1 mechanic anymore?

did they just change this today?

[fast lion]

Wdym

I literally just bought one

[elder wedge]

check back when his shop refreshes

[wispy kite]

I just finished a raid and had a early termination bug???? I ran as a scav just to warm up rq. Started with 16 min left looted here and there killed a hostile pscav as he tried to loot a airdrop I was just gonna let ‘em loot but he got wat he deserved. Left the raid with 13 seconds left. And I don’t have anything did I run through or sum??

[bold kernel]

DUDE WTF?

[fast lion]

Ok nvm I got mine from PK lv2

[limber shoal]

anyone else play this game while listening to music ? probably a bad idea but i only rely on my eyes for spotting 😂 my survival rate is 25% though

[open hedge]

i only listen top music when im pissed off

background noise of any kind keeps me sane

[fast lion]

I see a fellow vpo 215 emjoyer

You got ap already?

[open hedge]

no

eko suffices

rogues only need 1 shot to kill anyway

[limber shoal]

speaking of rogues my lighthouse map keeps crashing

after update

[karmic axle]

anyone else cant find a match on reserve?

[brisk wharf]

not music but sometimes I open streams while I am doing money runs

[fast lion]

Jesus I should really start using anything beside utg scope then

[undone magnet]

are you able to check in flea if someone is bartering for an item you own

[fast lion]

I literally leg meta my kills

[karmic axle]

required search

right click the item u have then go under "required"

make sure u dont filter out barters

[undone magnet]

ty

[eager mist]
