beginners-assistance

[brittle canyon]

yeah well link the more up-to-date one then

[rancid nova]

alot of metal and some other sounds were revamped

[buoyant crane]

why you say that

[brittle canyon]

it’s stupid expensive

and no one runs them

[buoyant crane]

what do ppl think about the helmet headphones

[rancid nova]

pretty bad

just check how many are using it at high lvl

[brittle canyon]

the one that goes on the fast mt is identical to sordin

[buoyant crane]

i think that could be not accurate

[meager shell]

i can help you a bit if you still need help

[rancid nova]

ofc its not accurate, its less than 50 people you'll look at if you look at streams

[buoyant crane]

I mean that quality doesn't = how much ppl use

[rancid nova]

"accurate" would be a survey of like 1000 people

well high level people wouldnt use bad equipment

[buoyant crane]

thats a fallacy

[cobalt jewel]

yeh

[rancid nova]

wot

[meager shell]

Okay go into the LFG beginners #2 vc

nvm

go into vc 6

[limber notch]

Bruh what a dick

[cobalt jewel]

one sec just in 1 atm

[raven cedar]

can any one help with some good raids/ tasks? im lv 2 or 3 i think cause i only started playing yesterday on this wipe

[wanton latch]

anyone know if air filtration unit is still broken and if i should not install it yet

[spare kindle]

I found this armor kit in a raid is it worth it to not use it so I can sell it when i get flea and also is it expensive?

[ornate owl]

lmao

[spare kindle]

is that a yes?

[ornate owl]

its good but you cant sell it on flea

it sells for around 230k to ragman

[spare kindle]

dang

[smoky moth]

?

[ornate owl]

oh shi i thought he was talkin bout the slick

he ss his entire stash lol

[limber notch]

to be fair he said armor kit not repair kit

[smoky moth]

keep one, this thing repairs armor better and doesn't spend more money than trader repairs

[limber notch]

does it work on a 1:1 ratio?

[smoky moth]

would be worse if he took the ss with his phone

[limber notch]

so 1 dura repair is 1 dura taken on kit?

[smoky moth]

31/65 gzhel

[spare kindle]

Better?

[limber notch]

tnx

[humble apex]

How do I know what attachments go to a gun? I want to put a sight on this VPO-209 and maybe some other things

[spare kindle]

pic?

Im new but I think I have the rail/optic system down

[spare kindle]

1. Remove rear sight and dust cover 2. Go to skier 3. Look for Bastion AK dust cover (if in stock) 4. Put Bastion onto VPO 5. Attach Sight

Sight must be compatible with picatinny rail though

[humble apex]

This ?

[spare kindle]

Yes

[humble apex]

What kind of sight should I buy?

[spare kindle]

Do you have Jaeger?

[humble apex]

No not yet

[spare kindle]

Okay so there a few you can buy without him 1. Walther MRS 13K (Skier) 2. Aimpoint 2 something from Peacekeeper

The Aimpoint needs rail adapters to fit though

The MRS will snap right on

Also MRS has a few different reticles you can try but the actual dot blows chunks

The Aimpoint is far more precise but lacks the FOV the MRS has

The Aimpoint is top left and the rail adapter is bottom right

[humble apex]

I went simple and got the Walther, so I didnt have to do anything else lol

[spare kindle]

Okay if you don't like it give the Aimpoint a try

tbh low level traders dont have good sights

[formal valley]

I'm planning on buying the game once I build my new PC. What are some general beginner tips?

[spare kindle]

I watched a bunch of videos about how the game works and quests

[static nebula]

these inventory check keys are expensive

[spare kindle]

dont watch people like lvndmark or them they give you an unrealistic feel of the game

[static nebula]

watch general sam 😛

[spare kindle]

you arent going to be an invincible chad running around with a massive m4 you are going to have a aksu that cant stay on target for shit

[spare kindle]

just watch videos on exfils, tasks, and the quirks of the game such as ammo

[formal valley]

Alright, many thanks

[spare kindle]

np

[neat flicker]

If i end up using a shotgun with buckshot ammo that has low damage and low penetration, should I be aiming for the limbs instead of the chest?

[brittle canyon]

either head or legs

if guy has faceshield, legs

[spare kindle]

typically buckshot has high flesh damage and poopy penetration so yes aim for legs they will be crimpled and thus slower

[civic kiln]

is pst any good?

[brittle canyon]

pst what caliber

[spare kindle]

9mm

[brittle canyon]

garbage

[civic kiln]

hm

what else can i use

im level 8

[brittle canyon]

7.62 ps

[civic kiln]

i need ammo for a pp-19

[brittle canyon]

sell the pp

[static nebula]

use an sks or something

[civic kiln]

i need a gun i gotta go in woods

[brittle canyon]

hell 7mm or 8.5 buckshot is more of a threat than 9mm

[limber shoal]

smh this game likes to put me against level 30-40 3 mans when im only level 10 🤷‍♂️ i would say at least i got one of them down but its not worth it

[brittle canyon]

sks

[civic kiln]

don't have the mags unlocked

[static nebula]

you dont use mags on standard sks

[brittle canyon]

u don’t need mags for sks

[civic kiln]

[static nebula]

[civic kiln]

[karmic axle]

[brittle canyon]

[static nebula]

[civic kiln]

[brittle canyon]

[civic kiln]

peacekeeper

[civic kiln]

no

im working on it

[brittle canyon]

it’s like 70 dollars or something

[neat flicker]

also, is it worth selling my junk items to save up for the big box before starting the hideout?

[civic kiln]

oh pk1 as in peacekeper 1

alright

this?

[static nebula]

yes

you can topload that one too

[civic kiln]

[static nebula]

or bring an extra

[rose roost]

What’s the best way to find nuts and bolts for workbench

[brittle canyon]

interchange toolbox run

[civic kiln]

👍

[limber notch]

since when is bastion a global stock item?

[brittle canyon]

everything has global stock

[limber notch]

nah some items u can buy infinite ammounts no?

[brittle canyon]

it’s early wipe so everyone’s buyin

[brittle canyon]

only things with amount “A LOT”

[limber notch]

mhm

I see

[brittle canyon]

and bastion was never A LOT

[static nebula]

yea, skier making good money

[whole thistle]

lmao they really had to stop people from buying so many

[modest lava]

does the gas anylizer barter from mehcanic count for the therapist questr

[limber notch]

ok hold up tho

[whole thistle]

no

[static nebula]

it has to be found in raid, or crafted

[limber notch]

since when cant we buy these at lvl 1?

[whole thistle]

this wipe

[limber notch]

😐

[atomic trail]

These bolts are cleaning out my cash

[limber notch]

so u cant even run 30 rounders ffs

[static nebula]

but you can?

[limber notch]

only 1 for buying the gun

[static nebula]

or take it from scavs

[limber notch]

or that yeah

but I mean straight from stash

[static nebula]

you can run adar with 30 rounder

[true haven]

is dairy usefull?

[static nebula]

300 $ for pk

[true haven]

any other usage?

[final frigate]

Do items extracted via the secure container lose their FIR status?

[static nebula]

only if you die

[smoky moth]

only if you get killed, they lose the FIR status

[untold elm]

for the therapist supply quest do i need to extract aswell?

[smoky moth]

Supply Plans quest?

[untold elm]

yes

[edgy plover]

Supply plans - yes

[untold elm]

the quest is supply plans

so i need to extract?

[smoky moth]

i mean, you have to extract to turn in the quest item so...

[open salmon]

did vss or the ammo for it get nerfed?

[smoky moth]

the opposite - VSS got buffed

[dusk hawk]

Does flashlight work against the AI in any way?

Or tactical clothing

[woeful spruce]

nope

[smoky moth]

they don't get blinded, it's a classic tarkov AI moment

[plucky ravine]

anyone know where i can report a bug

[brittle canyon]

launcher

[bold kernel]

any tips for getting the pocket watch

been trying for a while

[smoky moth]

no tips, just get the watch

you get killed often?

[bold kernel]

not really

but i remember i got it with a friend and i was close to evacing

and i got sniped

[smoky oracle]

need a hand>

[digital sable]

I like playing on night raids for fetch quests

[bold kernel]

yeah, i heard thats a good strat

[bold kernel]

nah im fine, thank you though

[digital sable]

but really, if you grind it out long enough, you'll eventually get lucky and get it

there's many times I struggle for several raids, then get lucky and don't encounter much resistance on a quest

[smoky oracle]

no worries sometimes its easier to run in and out on a solo run than with players

[bold kernel]

I think I just need to learn the map

Better

[smoky oracle]

do you have 2 monitors?

if so put the map up on one

[bold kernel]

No, but I use my phone for the map

[digital sable]

My advice is move quick on quests. I'd rather die 5 times rushing the objective than die once after hiding in a bush for half an hour

[smoky oracle]

that!

[lunar herald]

Why is leatherman locked from mechanic? I need it for workshop

[smoky oracle]

you n eed rep and certain lvl with him

[lunar herald]

No when i click on him there i could buy but when i searched on flea its locked

[digital sable]

Try just navigating to it on the trader screen

should be available at level 1 and plenty in stock

[nova yoke]

what can i do with player tags?

[digital sable]

Hold onto them for tasks, hold onto them for barter trades at later traders, hold onto them as trophy collection, or just sell for cash

[nova yoke]

oh

[digital sable]

I never sell a dog tag since a lot of tasks ask for them. There's also a step in the gunsmith questline that requires you get to an RSAS rifle which isn't sold on the flea-- the earliest you can reliably acquire one is from a barter trade that takes dog tags

[tough gyro]

What flares are the ones that drop airdrops?

What colors

Because I shot a red and green one on woods and nothing came

[digital sable]

I think only red calls an airdrop

it seems like people really don't fully understand the mechanics around it yet though

[tight ether]

Anyone want to run some early stage quests?

[simple peak]

anyone willing to die 5 times for me ill reward you. lvl 15+ bear

[nimble wind]

what happens if i dont extracty in time??

[wet relic]

You lose everything on your person and they take damage.

[nimble wind]

ok

[civic kiln]

is tcw 7.62x51 good

[digital sable]

Should perform similar to 7.62x39 PS

[lone hinge]

these are the good bullets ?

[civic kiln]

where can i find thermite

[lone hinge]

hidden stashes miltary tables and thecnical crates

[misty ginkgo]

!wiki ballistics

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics

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.

[civic kiln]

cheers

[misty ginkgo]

They’re good, until people start running t5 consistently (pretty far away from that point)

[misty ginkgo]

Lighthouse and Labs spawn it all the time

[civic kiln]

isn't lighthouse a dlc?

[lone hinge]

ok so i did good hording them i didn't know because i hate ar-15 based guns in this game

[lone hinge]

no

but you'd need a decent pc

[civic kiln]

pog

i have that

is lighthouse difficult?

[lone hinge]

kinda m.. mines everywhere and rogues

i recomend to go in ofline raids to learn the extracts

[misty ginkgo]

No, there is currently no DLCs in the game.

There’s one planned to closed beta soon, Arena - starting in autumn

[misty ginkgo]

And even arena isn’t in the main game

[lone hinge]

arena isin't a diferent game

[misty ginkgo]

Can’t be sold on Flea, 5.56 has been buffed a lot.

M4 is very cheap to mod rn, and has very low recoil with the new changes

[lone hinge]

i been hording it until i can bulit a good m4

i don't go with stock m4 and good bullets

im no nato soldier

[misty ginkgo]

Basically yes, but EOD get it for free - therefore i think they count is as a DLC

[misty ginkgo]

What lvl are you?

[lone hinge]

9

[misty ginkgo]

Oh yeah

[digital badge]

It is both a DLC and a different game

You can buy arena without buying the main game

[misty ginkgo]

Exactly

[lone hinge]

yea

[misty ginkgo]

But EOD get it for free, so dlc

[lone hinge]

i hope won't be above 25 (i have to pay uni too)

[digital badge]

Certainly wont be as much as the main game

[misty ginkgo]

I think nikita talked about it being very cheap.

I would guess ~15

[lone hinge]

5.99 mobile game range

[misty ginkgo]

The amount of cheaters would be insane

Just like Warzone, or any other free game

[shrewd ocean]

how do i effectively upgrade my carry max weight because any gear set i try and use, I'm always overweight, Do i just have to buy mass amounts of grenades and constantly throw them to level my strength, so I can actually use my gear

[fleet pond]

Is AKMN useful before LL3 trader?

[fringe badge]

Moving and running while overweight increases your strength skill slowly which will increase your max carry weight and movement speed. Alternatively, carry a M.U.L.E stim with you and it will increase your max carry weight for 15 minutes

[trail mural]

Dayum I had no idea it was 15 minutes

[ornate owl]

is it even worth using dorm marked

[bold kernel]

whats the reward?

[humble spruce]

When to repair?

[clear flume]

gaming

[humble spruce]

gaming

[zinc canopy]

Now

[civic kiln]

what are good bullets that i can get without flee market that are better than ps

(i have jeager)

[buoyant mason]

depends on your trader levels

[celest sage]

Not that low

@clear flume @humble spruce that stat doesn’t work

It doesn’t mean anything

[clear flume]

oh ik
i just find it funny

[humble spruce]

[quick forge]

anyone want to help me with some starter task?

[civic kiln]

1

[celest sage]

I’ve had my average lifetime go between 15 seconds and 2 hours within one raid

[clear flume]

because i know full well ive lived longer than 30 mins consistently

[buoyant mason]

lvl 1 traders PS is the best you're going to get im afraid

[civic kiln]

mh

alright thanks

[celest sage]

PS 7.62x39? That’s the best you’ll have until like flea market

[acoustic grotto]

can someone help me with missions

[bold kernel]

[lone hinge]

headsets have a diference betwen them ?

[fervent turret]

yes, how certain stuff sounds in them

some amplify certain sounds while suppressing others; some boost all sounds; some sound noisy while others sound clear

try em out

[lone hinge]

if they play alternative rock for me thye are good enough

[humble apex]

[lone hinge]

.336

[humble apex]

Molot VPO-209 .366 TKM carbine

[humble apex]

Do I need the "Atlyn" face shield for anything? Or just sell

[open salmon]

if you get your hands on an altyin then its useful but i dont know if thats gonna happen anytime soon

[humble apex]

So maybe keep it then? just wondering, trying to free up some inv space

but i can afford to keep it for later atm

[open salmon]

its goes on an level 6 helemt

[humble apex]

ahh

[stray scroll]

how to force a fracture or pain in factory?

[misty ginkgo]

It doesn't go on vulcan?

Wdym

[limber notch]

for the sole purpose of pvp which is better - binaural off or on?

[misty ginkgo]

Jump down from something high, pop a painkiller

Or make a friend or scav shoot you in the arm

[misty ginkgo]

Off, no matter what.

It has a lot of bugs rn

[stray scroll]

does it matter what ammo they are using

[misty ginkgo]

I mean, not really.

Your arm will prolly get blacked

But pain

Or a broken arm 🤷

[limber notch]

thanks

[stray scroll]

aight

[limber cliff]

why did this new update shit on my cpu

[lone hinge]

force >

'?

[lone hinge]

they disabled mip streaming it afecting tons of players

[limber cliff]

should i enable it again?

because i legit cant talk for like 2 minutes on discord

at the start of raid

[lone hinge]

cant they disabled it for good they will bring it back i hope in the next pathc

idk why they took it out it was perfectly fine

[stray scroll]

need pain for quest

[lone hinge]

smh i think they make bugs to fix later and get praises from us

[limber cliff]

couldnt i just change this to true

[lone hinge]

pain ,dosen't work

[limber cliff]

what

[misty ginkgo]

You can, probably wouldn't work

[limber cliff]

fuck it im gonna try it

[twin cairn]

whey guys what quest leads to killing shturnam

?

[tough gyro]

Are the flare cartridges airdrop flares

The ones you shoot with the flare gun

[dusky geyser]

it will either make the game not start or just do nothing

[bold kernel]

hey, do you lose any scav reputation from killing rouges as a scav?

[spare kindle]

No

Just scavs and scab bosses ( not the new 3 I think)

[rose roost]

i need nut

[hallow carbon]

is it normal to lose 1mil for only play or i just bad at this game

[errant mica]

can anyone open dorms mark room for me for cult part 2

[blissful sentinel]

i am noob i just started last week am level 14 still have therapist quest to find and hand in salawhi, what map and where is the best spot to find these suckers at?

[errant mica]

reserve medical spawns and emercom medical area on woods

[eager hollow]

Is edge of darkness worth the money?

[errant mica]

yes

if u play alot

[fiery chasm]

Is there a general scope that goes on all guns?

[wispy marten]

Majority of scopes go on most guns

You just need the right mount

Early game pso scope will go on sks/ak, a bit later you can get valday on most things and then move to vudu/vortex with 30mm scope mount

[indigo badge]

Based on this photo can somebody tell me where zb 16 is please

[bold kernel]

can i use a scope for this ?

[open salmon]

yeah

[idle cipher]

looking for a guide to learn the basics, do the debut quest and have fun

[lone hinge]

killed a duo leg meta

[plain dock]

go to customs and the place is called "crackhouse" near ruaf roadblock. thats where i found all my salewas

[icy quartz]

Why does everyone send people to crackpots for salewas

They are everywhere on reserve

[plain dock]

i struggled for money when i first started too. learn which people to sell what stuff too i.e trade goods to therapist, weapon parts to mechanic (disassemble every weapon you plan to sell you get a shade more), armor and bags to ragman (fence if the armor is destroyed). also insure EVERYTHING if you dont even want the gun back someone else more than likely isint either so thats a free kit back. theres also alot of times you will die to a boss or skav and just never be found so its worth it.

[zinc canopy]

Med spawns are all over every map. Should really just run maps you have other tasks for

[bold kernel]

where can i find flash drives for skier? lvl 20 and havent seen a single one

[fathom ocean]

safes and file cabinets where I find them most of the time

[distant pike]

should i use 45acp fmj or the lasermatch 45acp fmj in the ump
i looked at stats of the bullets but cant work out whats better

[limber cliff]

is air filtering unit broken

or does it work

[hallow carbon]

its not that, i mean always im stuck against 2v1 situation i kill 1 and other one killing me thats really sucks idk how to solve that situation without dying

IDK how i walk half of reserve with that and no one killed me

[mint light]

fmj

[vernal mantle]

Magnum Buck or Flechette?

[dim flint]

Can anyone clarify if the skills for scav and pmc are linked as in if u lvl something on scav it will work for pmc ?

Also if they aren't linked do the skills lvl'd on scav retain over the diff loadouts or is it just all random ?

[mint light]

flechette

[wet relic]

you dont get xp for ur pmc on scav runs

[heavy relic]

is there a website that gives clues to where you spawn into maps, or is it just play enough to figure it out. i am having quite a difficult time actually finding extracts

[dim flint]

Do skills slowly decrease overtime if u don't use them or did they remove that?

[plain dock]

thats why you insure everything. you dont really lose money persay if they dont take anything

[dim flint]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps

[plain dock]

also do skav as much as possible thats ezpz money and the more you do it the higher your rep gets and iirc the better stuff you have a chance to spawn with. just dont kill skavs as a skav it hurts your rep and curse/marks you which is rough skavs go out of their way to hunt you down

[hallow carbon]

cool to know

[dim flint]

Do skills decrease over time or did they remove it?

[fierce bison]

whats the best way to turn usd into roubles?

[hallow carbon]

should i sell military battery found in raid or save it?

[whole thistle]

keep for the prap

[left summit]

Can someone recomand me a video or picture for clean grafic settings with best visibility and all that shi

[honest ingot]

honestly its going to depend on 1. your monitor 2. your pc 3. your eye sight. so just tinker with it until you find something that fits you and your hardware.

can always use offline mode to do so easily so you dont risk losing any gear

[left summit]

Ight, for now my game looks to deepfried imo everything is kind off bluri when it comes to see someone from a far distanc

[left summit]

Ye off cours i use a offline raid

[distant pike]

there both fmj

[mint light]

match fmj

lasermatch is bad

[left summit]

Im trying out landmark settings maybe they are good for me

[limber cliff]

how much time does an interchange raid start with

[mint light]

lol landmark

[limber cliff]

how much time does an interchange raid spawn in with.?

[hallow carbon]

im using them they are pretty ok for me

[static wigeon]

i got a graphics card, what will it be worth on the flee market?

[left summit]

Trying them now

[dim flint]

why do some quests make jaeger rep and stuff go down ami meant to not do them or is there a certain order i should be doing in them or just ignore it and do the quest?

[limber cliff]

ignore rep

at the end of the day if you finish quests you'll get more than enough rep to get max

it's lore shit

[dim flint]

sweet as thank you

Do all items that need to be "found in raid" if u have option to craft them they will still be counted towards ur quest?

Is that for all items regardless as long as u can craft them it will be raid eligble?

[lunar gyro]

can i have some in game support, im entirely new and have no clue what is going on, and dont want to throw all of my gear away in a raid

[valid trout]

200k

lemme check

[eager hollow]

Can you get the OP SKS scope below level 15 from the traders?

[valid trout]

190k rn

[valid trout]

uhhh

idk

[valid trout]

sks running

bag anmd paca

it will help you find where to find loot and get better aimming

or use a kedr

[pulsar hamlet]

any tips on how i know if im in a raid with Tagilla?

i got killed by him, but had no clue he was in the raid

[ashen linden]

Hey I killed a player who had a slick, I don't have a lot of money and it sells for 200k but it's really good should I sell it?

[pulsar hamlet]

what lvl r u?

[ashen linden]

8

[pulsar hamlet]

i would sell

[ashen linden]

Ok

[honest ingot]

id use it hoenstly even with being that low level it gives u more survivability

[ashen linden]

Thanks : )

Hm

[pulsar hamlet]

eh at lvl 8 i'd sell it for the money

[distant pike]

there both fmj types

[mint light]

yeah

lasermatch is bad

[honest ingot]

money is easy to come by, slicks aren't

[mint light]

match fmj is just called fmj by most people

[ashen linden]

That's true

but at the end of the day

[pulsar hamlet]

i would only say if you are new to the game with a slick, likely you are going to lose it

[ashen linden]

most people aim for the head

[dim flint]

If your a new player and asking if u should sell or not then its already gone his a walking loot pinyata

[ashen linden]

Like I did to get it

[pulsar hamlet]

this

[ashen linden]

Ok

Selling to ragman

[pulsar hamlet]

like i would say save the slick till way later in levels

[dim flint]

Im 8 days in and id sell everything u find and focus on ur hideout

and hitting 15

8 days (fresh player never played before)

when i say sell everything i m ean like weapons/armor etc

[pulsar hamlet]

a slick is very amazing armour, but its not everyday armour to bring on a loot run to customs

[dim flint]

not the junk stuff hoarde all of that for ur quests/hideout requirements

[pulsar hamlet]

especially if you are new

[dim flint]

and focus on getting a junk box or 2 or 3 or 4 lmao

[ashen linden]

Ok

[pulsar hamlet]

yeah im at 2 at the moment with standard edition

[modest cargo]

Yo how do u turn on a flashlight mounted on a helmet?

[ashen linden]

Hey does the B33 go on the 74U?

whats the best way to turn usd to roubles

[daring stag]

hey im confused. Im trying to sell some crutons for 50k. It says my fee is 93,703. wtf?

[honest ingot]

not worth it doing it any way really. but youd have to buy items using usd and sell them for roubles.

[drifting jolt]

So is anyone having issues with traders?

I cant buy anything from anyone, even barters... Telling me I dont have what it takes to complete the transaction

when it's literally any item i try to get

[honest ingot]

click the auto fill box?

[drifting jolt]

god....

damn it

lol

[valid trout]

which croutons

emyila?

[drifting jolt]

certain well desired items have really high fees...

[honest ingot]

^^plus the higher priced you mark it if its above a certain value makes the fee jump drastically as well

[gilded ether]

i have played a few wipes but since this last one i can play a few minutes of a raid and am booted for server connectivity issue have extracted twice in about 20 some raids usually never get back in. i normally select three of lowest ping servers around 35

[valid trout]

wel

thats a wifi issue

or internet

[honest ingot]

repair game + clear cache if that doesn't work its wifi or internet related.

[daring stag]

rye ones

[gilded ether]

ok ive tried those reset modem extender all that as well

[valid trout]

why sell them for 50K?

[gilded ether]

i have 40 down 50 upload

[daring stag]

thats just nuts.

[valid trout]

they are 4k on flea

[drifting jolt]

yeah, but it makes it so that people cant manipulate the market as easily

[honest ingot]

doesn't matter, if you already repaired game + clearted cache, its wifi/internet issue. just cause you have a certain speed doesn't mean its stable or you don't have packet loss ect ect

[daring stag]

not those, the other ones my bad.

[valid trout]

which ones

[daring stag]

you cant even find them. "rye croutons"

[gilded ether]

sure just dont get why after wipe its now happening server connection lost repeatedly

[valid trout]

lemme see

oh i see now

[honest ingot]

did you repair game and clear cache yet?? if so then just a coincidence its happening after wipe and call ur isp. literally nothing you can do other than that.

[valid trout]

wtf????? ive never see this with this food

ppl are asking ammo for food

💀

[daring stag]

you need them for a quest essentially

[valid trout]

yea ik

dosent it need to be found in raid tho?

[gilded ether]

yeah time to run that cable from the opposite side of my house i suppose

[gilded ether]

i watch my ping before it happens and its fine just wasnt sure if something needed to be changed in settings

[west kestrel]

where can i find car manuals

[valid trout]

jackets

filling cabiants

[honest ingot]

any container and scavs.

[west kestrel]

thanks, i need them for a weekly

[dim flint]

who's the best person to hand in chemical part 4 to ?

[valid trout]

AH

2 MUTANTS?'

[west kestrel]

rewards wise probably therapist, cause she gives you a stim case

[whole quarry]

[honest ingot]

it sells fairly cheap on marketplace

and you can also barter for it via therapist i believe

[whole quarry]

aight bet i was just wondering if anyone had it that would raid with me

[limber notch]

You can get all those in an interchange scav run

Except crackers but iirc u can buy from rapist

[wooden jolt]

because it is 100% skier

[limber notch]

What does he give?

[potent crater]

he doesnt give anything good but for the rep back task you need to pay him 1 millions rubles

compared to a few m67 grenades for prapor and a few shit not even FIR keys for thera

[limber notch]

Oh yeah ik that

U gotta pay 1 mil

I mean, doesnt injector case sell for over 1 mil?

[potent crater]

[potent crater]

do you scav? Do yuo just have a super high SR

what do you do to make your money?

[simple canopy]

But for the first time. i don't have huntsman path woodskeeper unlocked. like idk why.

[simple canopy]

Run PMCs. i don't scav.

[simple canopy]

i don't scav.

[honest ingot]

should check out tarkovtracker.io its a good website for quest tracking, but you unlock that quest at level 17

[potent crater]

you got an SR over 50% no wonder you have mad money

[simple canopy]

got cha

[humble apex]

I'm not sure what I need to do here, tried to put this red dot site on

[potent crater]

do you hard avoid pvp because early wipe or like how do you play?

[honest ingot]

and quests to unlock it are introduction>acquaintance>the survivalist path - thrifty>The survivalist path - wounded beast> the4 survivalist path - secured perimeter> then unlock woods keeper

@simple canopy ^^

[ruby ermine]

gas block

[humble apex]

Which trader do I buy that from

[simple canopy]

no. i fight to the death

[ruby ermine]

mechanic

[potent crater]

so ur just insane at thegame

[simple canopy]

yea. i finished secured perimeter. I killed reshala. but don't got shutrman. is this a bug?

[ruby ermine]

the gas block doesn’t show up on his traders tab but it’s on flea

[honest ingot]

actually they've changed the order this wipe cause i havn't killed shutrman yet.

[simple canopy]

cause it's weird. lower levels than me has the quest while i don't

[bold kernel]

I lost my secure

container

[mint light]

LMFAO

how bruh

[potent crater]

NNAAAAH HOW

[honest ingot]

ur missing a quest somewhere to unlock it that they changed is my guess

[bold kernel]

any way to get it back

[honest ingot]

i'm level 35 but have it. heres my current jaeger tasks

[mint light]

which one

[simple canopy]

ppl are suggesting that it's the fishing place.

[bold kernel]

normal one

[honest ingot]

possible i did do fishing place

[mint light]

u can buy it from peacekeeper

[simple canopy]

i haven't found a single card. .

[bold kernel]

dont see ut

[honest ingot]

go after scavs and bosses and raiders.

[bold kernel]

how to get my pouch back

[honest ingot]

reserve+night factory for tagilla is what i'd farm. personally.

[honest ingot]

what happened to your pouch?

[bold kernel]

dissapeared

Need help with first 2 woods quest lvl 6

not there

[honest ingot]

did you move it into your stash??

[bold kernel]

No i clicked on it

moved it and now its gone

was looking at it and shaking it

[honest ingot]

while in your main menu or while in game?

[bold kernel]

menu

[honest ingot]

then its in ur stash

[bold kernel]

its not

i looked everywhere

i can screenshare

for you

[young stump]

I NEED HALP!

[honest ingot]

lolol rip his container is missing at level 1 XD

[honest ingot]

literally no one can help you if thats all u say

[young stump]

Listen here buddy!

Bruh you cant post gifs? Lameee

[pulsar raven]

what the best setup for starting usec weapons? standard edition as well

[whole thistle]

You need peacekeeper 2

[whole thistle]

Have you restarted your game?

Inventory bugs out sometimes

[pulsar raven]

anyone wanna hop on with me for first couple raids just to get me started

[wind jasper]

this is overloaded for me at spawn?? If I drop the toz will that be fine then? Didnt think 2 kg is much

In hideout this isnt anywhere near full load of 26/62kg. Why am I getting slapped with an overloaded on spawn?

[whole thistle]

Being overweight doesn't do anything unless you're like 15 kg over, don't drop things just to get rid of it

[grand grotto]

yea you'll be fine

[wind jasper]

ah ok tohught i was losing stamina pretty fast when running

guess thats normal

[whole thistle]

It's a gradiant it's not just normal vs can't walk

[grand grotto]

more overweight, more you lose stamina and the more its harder to regain

like if u get to 50 kg then you dont gain any stamina when you walk

[whole thistle]

62 kg is the point where you basically can't walk, not the overweight cutoff

You can also hold over 62 kg so idrk what the point of that is

[grand grotto]

well thats if u have mule

[mint light]

u get extreme overweight

[whole thistle]

But yeah overweight is like 22 kg now

[mint light]

bro cant hold anything fr

[grand grotto]

depends on ur strength skill tho right?

[whole thistle]

I've carried like 70 with no mule, it's just very fucking slow lmao

[grand grotto]

i bet

[whole thistle]

Yeah and the guy running a toz probably has level 1 strength 💀

[grand grotto]

yea lmao

[pulsar marlin]

is militery battery good?

how much is it?

[wind jasper]

Last loot of this raid. What should I have taken and what did I keep thats trash

[trail mural]

Besides maybe the fore grips and the h-2 scope all weapon parts you have aren’t really worth while

What other gun (besides a toz?) would you have even used anyway

Yeah that should work

[astral blaze]

level 0-2 here looking for anyone that knows more than I do to run a raid?

[wind jasper]

the ammo boxes and tea are more valuable?
And did I have anything on my person thats particularly good except the diary?

[trail mural]

If you want official help you can try looking into the Sherpa thing which has people who are very experienced and will help you in raids

[astral blaze]

copy thanks

[trail mural]

I didn’t even see the ammos but yeah I personally wouldn’t take them but there are charts online which you can find that show you which ammos are very good to take from a raid. Otherwise I didn’t see anything crazy good but the specter dr is not a bad scope either

[noble stone]

does anybody have a chart of what i should keep and what i should sell? this is my first wipe and i've gotten 2 junk scav boxes filled to the brim already, not sure what to keep and what to sell

[limber cliff]

do you need 6 ophthalmoscopes for a quest?

[wind jasper]

you wouldnt even bother to take fill up your bag as a low lvl if its not valuable? Anyways ty

Yo folks can I leave quest rewards unclaimed as long as I want (for space reasons)?

[eager hollow]

Anyone knows how to stop feeling demotivated when you get steamrolled?

Getting my ass blasted

[trail mural]

As far as I know I think yes but you can see if there’s a timer on the message

[trail mural]

I personally would keep the space open because the amount of money it sells for is relatively insignificant. But if you want it, just be prepared to drop the shit ammo when you see something else

[cyan lagoon]

im new and i dont have RB-KSM key but i got RB-PSM can someone help please

[bold kernel]

Hey i got decent loot after a scav raid, and accidentally pressed yes when i got to the main menu i accidentally pressed yes on the inventory screen did i just lose all of my loot?

it said i could do something later and im just really confused

[bold kernel]

u lost everything i think

damn

[bold kernel]

what does the screen say though?

like the one that i accidentally pressed yes on

[bold kernel]

that u have untransfered loot and if u want to continue anyway i think

[open hedge]

[open hedge]

up

away from buildings too

[barren fern]

so just like, directly above me, right?

[open hedge]

maybe not 90 degrees

[barren fern]

if im too close to edge of map, can it fall in a place i cant get to?

[open hedge]

just aim it up and away from buildings and map borders

[barren fern]

okay

[dull mulch]

What's the bridge v exit in woods?

[open hedge]

a car

[dull mulch]

Ok

[open hedge]

as with all car extracts you need to pay 5k to use it

[icy quartz]

More for negative scav karma, less for positive scav karma

[pliant citrus]

can someone help me get the letter for therapist on woods?

[icy quartz]

Letter for therapist?

[ruby ermine]

maybe if you just keep refreshing fence and get an aks with the mount and then take the mount off of it

[dull mulch]

Fuck i don't have cash

Is 6 min enough time to get to outskirts

[brittle canyon]

just start running

[dull mulch]

I am

[wet dew]

this is what i usually run

im only level 10 though

[open hedge]

dripped out for level 10

[wet dew]

i also got bank for legit scav running 24/7

[dull mulch]

I was 50 ft away from extract right as the time was up

[wet dew]

i do either factory or interchange

although i get extract camped 70% of the time on interchange

[open hedge]

interchange is dead as fuck

thought all the nvg wearing chads would be on nighttime

i was wrong

[cursive mantle]

this game so hard

for my first raid should i go full kit or just with like a handgun

[wet dew]

helmet heaven

[open hedge]

its buckshot proof

[open hedge]

for early raids i like to keep it small and cheap

[wet dew]

you don't even need nvgs for interchange what when i've ran it was bright enough to see

although i've only done 2 nights on it

[wet dew]

shotgun

[open hedge]

i only go night on interchange

its bright and scav cant 1 tap you

[wet dew]

techlight any better at night?

[open hedge]

nobody loots techlight even during the day

[warm jewel]

I'm probably the one millionth person to ask something like this, but I'm 4 points in recoil above what I need for gunsmith 1, what can I do?

[open hedge]

can use that shotgun anyway the durability is too low

[hardy rain]

can you complete tasks that involve killing PMCs by grouping with your friends then they let you kill them?

[open hedge]

but it needs this

[open hedge]

no

[hardy rain]

so que at the same time then track each other down got it

[warm jewel]

lemme see that hold up

[open hedge]

or just get good

[hardy rain]

nah us rats dont get good

we get sneaky

[warm jewel]

that was it, thank you

[open hedge]

just run factory if your doing friend from the west

factory players are braindead

[hardy rain]

im running drum fed saiga with rip rounds on factory office

[open hedge]

rip wont do you well

only good slug is AP20

run magnum or flechette

[hardy rain]

yea but i havent run into anyone with bodyarmor on factory

all armorless pistolings

[open hedge]

dont have to aim with magnum

its also cheaper

[hardy rain]

to be specific its alternating buckshot/rip in my starter mag, and then Rip. Pol 6u slugs in second

[bitter slate]

anyone know why people need rye croutons?

[dense hemlock]

does factory scav really have loot? i feel like its empty when scavs roll in

[open hedge]

tasks

[bitter slate]

ok

[dense hemlock]

jaegar fat ass wants them

[wet dew]

i usually make at least 75k per run for me, just make sure you know every loot spot

[dense hemlock]

pog

[open hedge]

75k is nothing for a scav run tho

reserve interchange or customs can make way more than that

[wet dew]

also factory is easy to hunt pmcs that are left because scavs only spawn after 10 minutes of raid timer running

[dull mulch]

OF COURSE THE SECOND I GET MULTIVITAMINS I GET SHOT IN THE BACK WHILE TRYING TO EXTRACT

THESE FUCKING EXTRACT CAMPERS

I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL BASH AN INFANTS HEAD IN WITH A BRICK IF THIS SHIT CONTINUES

[brittle canyon]

cope

[open hedge]

seethe

[chrome jay]

use the anger

[dull mulch]

I'm either going to become one, or kill every single person I see without discrimination

[gleaming ore]

anyone who has the key for bunkhouse tryna help me with bad rep evidence?

Just needa grab it and extract

[open hedge]

player scav tried to catch me lacking

[green portal]

as a scav, can you lose karma by shooting near a player?

[open hedge]

no

have to kill them

[green portal]

okay for sure

[open hedge]

you can even hurt people as long as you dont kill them

[dull mulch]

I swear night modes are the best ones

[green portal]

what if you shoot them? will they get karma for killing you?

[open hedge]

no gain no loss

you only gain rep if they killed someone before you

[green portal]

wow so you can only kill when you saw them kill

ohhhh okay

[open hedge]

yep

[green portal]

no gain no loss if they are shot by you and kill you

just a neutral interaction

I shot near someone, didn't hit them, they mowed me down :( said it was on accident

so they probably lost karma then

[open hedge]

they did

are you using a vpn?

then i cannot help you

is it across multiple games or just 1 single raid?

idk man nobody elde is having issues

[untold urchin]

first week on tarkov, brutal as fuck, have only escaped once, get one tapped all the time, and tasks are hard for me, just because i get shot from god knows where, im trying to improve by doing private games and i think im getting better. also hard to know what to focus on.

[shy flint]

I feel you on this lol I still have the fear of losing gear

[open hedge]

this wipe has had the least bugs ive seen in the entirety of my 2000 hours only exception being vertical audio

[shy flint]

[untold urchin]

im using pistol runs mostly to learn the fear of gear

[shy flint]

You even do that? I'm still too scared to do even that

[untold urchin]

i can learn how to make plays with pistols

[untold urchin]

lol

[open hedge]

i speak for myself you cannot tell me otherwise

[shy flint]

I just do private runs and try and practice with PvE on factory. Heart beating out of my chest

[open hedge]

if youre scared to run good stuff just use shotguns

at this point in wipe nobody has a face shield

[shy flint]

I'm just too scared to do a live raid in general. Been playing too much looter shooters. I'm used to getting gear and keeping it. Not losing gear

[untold urchin]

run factory as a scav and its an ez way of getting free loadouts

[shy flint]

[shy flint]

i really should do that more lol

[untold urchin]

i do it after most custom runs

[shy flint]

It doesn't help that I don't know any routes. When you go to factory are you looking to just frag out? Or is there loot to be had there?

[untold elm]

whats with the airdrops

called 3 in so far 0 have arrived

[untold urchin]

im down to run one together I feel like having a team would be very nice

[open hedge]

only red flares work

[untold elm]

even the pistol ones?

[brittle canyon]

yea

[untold elm]

damn

[elfin pendant]

for chemical part 4 is it better to give to skier, parpor or therapist?

[untold elm]

explains alot

[shy flint]

Completely unrelated. Love your Pfp.

[open hedge]

therapist

[shy flint]

[brittle canyon]

look at the cases tbh

thera is injector case now btw

not medcase

[untold urchin]

what do the intesity ratings mean on every map, just how hard it is to extract

[brittle canyon]

it's meaningless

[untold urchin]

thats what i thought\

[open hedge]

the games logic is bigger map=harder

doesnt make any sense

[untold urchin]

ok

[elfin pendant]

before it gave medcase but now its injector case. isnt that kinda bad? i rarely have a lot of injectors

[shy flint]

Time to use my scav and get rekted in Factory let's goooo

[brittle canyon]

well it's a massive advantage if u have a case that accomodates it

[untold urchin]

yo thats what im doing rn to

what if we in the same game

[shy flint]

I just got on lol

[untold urchin]

2 mins into matching

[brittle canyon]

propital zagustin mule etg 10%dmg antidote etc in just 1 slot

[shy flint]

[shy flint]

Yeah

[untold urchin]

[shy flint]

you're gonna bust a cap in my head

[untold urchin]

[shy flint]

Oh wait scavs are friends to each other

wym?

[shy flint]

I didn't get a load we're in different things. Maybe next time.

[misty ginkgo]

To regain his rep, you'll have to pay him 1 mill

[brittle canyon]

when you betray skier he asks for 1m
you can just not pay the guy and do more quests

same with all the other traders tbf but they aren't as expensive

with m80 on pk3 I think there's even less merit to skier 2 anyway

[open hedge]

why the fuck are these always out of stock
how many mongrols go nighttime this wipe

[shy flint]

@untold urchin Noooo I was doing soo good I killed 2 players and 2 scavs. But got popped in the head by another player

Actually gave me a heart attack lol it was dead silent.
