[coral turtle]

Me too

[pallid kernel]

i feel like i dont want to throw too much money into my loadout before i figure some stuff out first

[coral turtle]

53K Rubles + 90$ for the mag

[rancid nova]

im lvl 21 xd and i got more money than alot of lvl 30+

[coral turtle]

._.

[rain wing]

why sugar so cheap now lmao

[rancid nova]

[rain wing]

I've been hoarding it

[coral turtle]

Too early in the wipe

[rancid nova]

cause new people dont know what its for and there is an abundance in loots

[rain wing]

so just sell it off or hoard it?

[coral turtle]

Gotta wait for the moonshine production to really start for it to go up I think

I would keep it, that's what I'm doing

[rancid nova]

i hoard like 10-20 FIR

[humble cave]

Finally a man with the proper taste.

[rancid nova]

i prefer mapgenie

[coral turtle]

Both are good

[pallid kernel]

yea mapgenie seems nice

[rancid nova]

you just gotta NOT clutter yourself

[rain wing]

is it worth keeping a 26/70 sugar btw?

[rain wing]

easier said than done

[pallid kernel]

yea just hide all and select a few

[rancid nova]

extract, location, hidden cache, jackets, meds is most i do

[pallid kernel]

yes

[rancid nova]

maybe dead scav

[rain wing]

ik it still works for the craft but do people just filter for full dura

[pallid kernel]

tho i still struggle with looting

i never actually know where to go

for loot

[rancid nova]

keep sugar for craft

[rain wing]

diabetes collection

[violet furnace]

waht wrong

[rancid nova]

zweky thats when you slow down and figure out where you are on the map

[rancid nova]

no scope

[coral turtle]

No scope

[pallid kernel]

i can orient myself fairly easily on woods and customs

[violet furnace]

wiki says so scope

[pallid kernel]

but i just dont know how to loot i guess

[violet furnace]

500 sighting range

[rain wing]

will this be worth more later on or no point in keeping?

[rancid nova]

oh well

let us know its a quest haha

[rain wing]

actually

anyone that runs mk18 probably has jaeger ll4

[thorn rune]

is it worth keeping the pistols you start with or should i just strip and sell them?

[rancid nova]

14k from jaeger

just sell it now

[rancid nova]

use them for budget runs

[thorn rune]

okay cool ty

[rancid nova]

youre gonna lose more money thinking about that extra possible 30-40k than just running a raid right now

[rain wing]

I have 6 slots left in my stash

I need space more than anything

[rancid nova]

junkbox

[rain wing]

already

[rancid nova]

should have like 2-3 now

[rain wing]

too much gear 💀

[violet furnace]

so noone know whats wrong? same as wiki

[rancid nova]

just go to youtube man

those quests are annoying

whats the quest name ?

[rancid nova]

hello ?

[violet furnace]

gunsmith 14

[rancid nova]

[digital sable]

One man’s black is another man’s stealth grey

[crystal oracle]

[edgy elbow]

[stable granite]

[fallow totem]

Means they are looking for it, you will get another message if they find it or if they dont

[edgy elbow]

oh k, thanks

[stable granite]

just means your insurace is working if no one takes your stuff

any of you tryna do early quests?

[crystal oracle]

Welp

I just killed shturman

As a scav ffs

[rancid nova]

lol

[crystal oracle]

Bruh the one time we go shturman we get him

as a scav

Time to solo customs and do my 2 quests I guess

[spring ingot]

any kind souls with blue tape and cottage key help this poor pleb complete 2 quests

[bold kernel]

looking for someone with marked dorms key

[odd field]

[crystal oracle]

O0mfg

These sweaty little chads camping fucking quest room

[bold kernel]

intelligence center lvl will reduce it

[odd field]

Thank u

[bold kernel]

np

[severe tiger]

brooo

im level 14 and all my fckn quests require keys now

[bold kernel]

just get to lvl 15 and u can buy most

[kindred grotto]

one more level and you can buy them

[severe tiger]

ik

[bold kernel]

anybody wanna do shooter born in heaven on reserve ?

[severe tiger]

but getting xp without quests is hard

[unborn cloak]

When do you unlock the KS-23M from prapor. I believe you used to be able to buy it for rubles now its only barter

[lone hinge]

i need to finmd them or i can craft them

[pallid kernel]

Guys, why does woods have only one viable pmc extract?

zb 14 takes a key and isnt always open, factory gate needs a scav co op and the bridge needs money

only outskirts

are good

[lone hinge]

un roadblock

[pallid kernel]

i havent gotten that one yet it seems

out of like 6 or 7 raids

[bold kernel]

u can craft t plugs

very common in filing cabinets if i remember correctly @lone hinge

[lone hinge]

yea but mechanic ask to be found thast why im asking

[bold kernel]

crafting counts for that

if u mean that

[lone hinge]

oh thx

[rancid nova]

wtf these people

[bold kernel]

wdym

[rancid nova]

some people have this

[bold kernel]

i started a week late and its like this for me

[rancid nova]

okay big boi

[bold kernel]

oh not like that

like this

[pallid kernel]

how loud is my pmcs grunting when he is out of stamina?

like compared to running

or something

[cunning bone]

map recomendation to make some money as a scav? heard woods and reserve

[copper plaza]

reserve

[dire monolith]

Woods is good since all the loot is accessible (no keys) pretty rare spawns

Lighthouse is also really good

[cunning bone]

Recomendations or routes in Lighthouse?

[dire monolith]

Wherever you spawn

[fading pagoda]

Interchange

[dire monolith]

Best is next to lighthouse expansion,

so much loot there

Chalet

All the little homes

And if u want rogue camp get some guns

[cunning bone]

Thats nice

Rogues in waterplant decrease karma? i dont use scav often

[dire monolith]

No

But a lot of player scavs like going there and they usually kill you if you have rogue loot

And those guys will make u lose karma if u shoot first

[edgy elbow]

is peacekeeper more profit than engineer?

[pure mist]

What is that mean

[dire monolith]

I think he means mechanic

[edgy elbow]

i call him engineer as a meme

and now it's stuck in my head

[pure mist]

Yes but wdym more profit

[dire monolith]

I usually sell to mechanic unless I need pk money for loyalty

[pure mist]

You mean selling?

Yes mechanic is better

[edgy elbow]

yah

[pure mist]

Pk is info items

[raw pelican]

Is merin car key still good?

[dire monolith]

It’s okay not as good as what it was when they released it

Nothing crazy just an ok key

[edgy elbow]

what does the toyoda key do?

or whatever fake ass brand it is

Yotota

[bold kernel]

nothing

[fervent ermine]

It opens some car on woods

Has no loot

[bold kernel]

just keep a map open on the side

[pure mist]

Try looking for landmarks

It took me like two weeks when I first started

The map tells you

[misty ginkgo]

We have to play Woods with Spartan

I have shit ton of woods tasks anyways

[bold kernel]

super stupid question and not toxic but u know u have to press o twice so the exits pop up if thats what u mean

[pallid kernel]

there are some maps that you can use filters on

so you only see extracts

[pure mist]

I learned my first map customs by like, oh this shape of this road can only be here etc

[pallid kernel]

i dont see why you have a problem then

[misty ginkgo]

Pro tip: Bind the "Check Exfils" to Press instead of Double Click. - makes it show the extracts all the time, instead of you having to double press and fight that.

[pure mist]

Once you know where you are just follow the map

[bold kernel]

just press o twice in raid

[pallid kernel]

but you can just press o twice

[misty ginkgo]

Double press O.

[bold kernel]

lol

[pure mist]

Lol

[misty ginkgo]

Lol omg 🌈

[pure mist]

Was wondering how can you forget exfil

[pallid kernel]

what

[pure mist]

It’s on the map

[bold kernel]

wdym u have aa map

[pure mist]

Literally

[bold kernel]

ure confusing me

[pallid kernel]

i dont really understand your problem

[mighty wind]

there is no message

[pallid kernel]

do you like forget stuff in 5 seconds?

[mighty wind]

I picked it up last raid but didnt extract

but the quest didnt complete

[pure mist]

You are pmc right?

You gotta extract with the message

And turn it in

[mighty wind]

ah

[pallid kernel]

but you have a map to assist you

you do you i guess

[pure mist]

You look at what exfil You have, and look at the map to see where it is

[mighty wind]

I'm stupid

I was scav

[pure mist]

Lol

[mighty wind]

third time lucky

[pallid kernel]

how do i level up traders?

do i need to complete specific quests or what?

[odd field]

why when i have one offer i have 2/2?

[tepid knot]

If u click on flea market u can see ur offers

[odd field]

yeah but i see only one

[tepid knot]

Hm weird, I’d restart my game then

[odd field]

okay

[timber steeple]

Welp shoreline repair quest wont be done anytime soon xD spawned in, ran 20 feet and died

[civic hedge]

when you have their window open it says the requirements in the corner. probably a level, standing and amount of currency spent

[rancid nova]

anyone else get huge headaches from playing tarkov ? especially stash management

[royal monolith]

easiest way to find these?

[civic hedge]

i get like too involved with stash management and micro manage it. its like a game in itself. a game i play to avoid going back out there...

[rancid nova]

my head is exploding from it

[rancid nova]

reserve grenade boxes etc

[civic hedge]

grenade boxes

[royal monolith]

for me, stash management is the chill part of tarkov.

[civic hedge]

^same

[rancid nova]

nah cause i wanna do PMC, but i get my scav cooldown back, so i run scav, then i got more stuff to sell, then i gotta manage, stash, then scav is back and i do scav, etc etc

endless loop of trying to be effecient xd

[civic hedge]

the scav option makes me feel better about using gear because youll never actaully get to a point where you have nothing

you can always work your way up, buy a glock or sks and do some sneaky night raids

[rancid nova]

i still scav on cooldown almost

[civic hedge]

how do yall get the bigger pouch? just buying the better version of the game

[rancid nova]

EOD

edge of darkness

$110 to Nikita

[bold kernel]

bro honestly i just buy 3 scav boxes

and strash in there until end of day

[rancid nova]

ive already got 3

[bold kernel]

then sell off

[royal monolith]

get a doc case for the keys i guess

[rancid nova]

im drowning xd

[bold kernel]

well bro sell off gear

just sell gear to ragman

[rancid nova]

dude all the rigs and packs are full of stuff

i wouldnt fit stash if i didntn have them atm

[royal monolith]

stack backpacks and sell somethings

[rancid nova]

i am

[bold kernel]

theres no way

[rancid nova]

what u think haha

[bold kernel]

just sell off

its not that serious lol

[rancid nova]

see ?

[bold kernel]

well sell?

[rancid nova]

why you think i got like 50 mil stash value

they are needed for quests later tho

[bold kernel]

u can sell half of that to therapisdt

u dont need any of that

besides one can of sprats i think and ushankas

[rancid nova]

whiskey, vodka, axe, ushanka, sprats quests

[bold kernel]

whiskey isnt even fir

bro its not that hard to find a vodka

i think u can even craft one

[rancid nova]

ive found 2

[bold kernel]

u cna craft em i think

yeah u cna

[rancid nova]

yea

[bold kernel]

so?

[rancid nova]

still thats 3 slots

[bold kernel]

i can just tell u u shouldnt have those probs

im lvl 38 and i dont

u just need to get rid of shit lol

[rancid nova]

thats my problem, i just wanna scav to not miss out on loot, then i get too much, then i gotta sort, then scav cooldown is back again

rip my brain

[bold kernel]

well u just gotta start insta selling to traders

[mighty wind]

Why tf is my character dying the second I join a raid

[bold kernel]

ppl underrate insta selling

[mighty wind]

from exhaustion

[bold kernel]

cus u didnt eat

ur food will go down for every min in read

[mighty wind]

I just joined it

[bold kernel]

and will regen for every min in hideout

nono but its transfers

[rancid nova]

i do vendor alot of stuff with -10k rouble profit, up to 50k on some

[mighty wind]

oh so I've played too much

I see how it is

[rancid nova]

no

just buy or find food

bring into raid, eat it and you good

[bold kernel]

40 mins of in raid will like basically full drain u

[mighty wind]

wWater?

[bold kernel]

thats why food is in the game as not to sound stupid

[rancid nova]

calculate drink/food 100/100, bring that in your backpack, drink eat at start of raid to 100 and you good

cause you dont get metabolism skill points if you do it outside of raid

[civic hedge]

i bring food to big maps or if i plan to hang around but eating at the start isnt a bad idea

[bold kernel]

oh and vzaj my biggest recommend is sell off guns to mechanic even if theyre dope

[rancid nova]

ofc, i do to him and peacekeeper

but its tough sometimes

also isnt this stupid ?

,T4 good rig

[bold kernel]

Mind posting a pic of your stash?

he has above

far above

Ah

[bold kernel]

these

[rancid nova]

thats not all of it but some

[cyan lagoon]

wallets for days

[rancid nova]

yea xd

[bold kernel]

Man how come you running sks and cheap armor when you got all that loot and rubles?

[rancid nova]

cause i kill raiders then take their good gear and use that after

[bold kernel]

How do you guys already have so much stuff and quests done. This is the first wipe where I've sat down and actually played for more than a few hours, I've seen a ton of gameplay, but I still don't really know how to do things lol.

[rancid nova]

check youtubers, Piranha is good he helped me with vids

wiki

[unborn elk]

need help

how to heal

[mighty wind]

therapist

[unborn elk]

no money

[bold kernel]

You got flea?

[unborn elk]

nope

[mighty wind]

play scav, get money, heal

[bold kernel]

I'd say sell the useless stuff like knives and soap

[unborn elk]

oh i can only scav

[bold kernel]

Anything thats not value sell it and then you got money for hp

[mighty wind]

they are probs saving knives for smg

[bold kernel]

Oh ye

[civic hedge]

i am haha

[unborn elk]

what map can i get money from

[mighty wind]

all of them

[unborn elk]

any in particular

[civic hedge]

i see a lot of people run interchange for money

[bold kernel]

Reserve is good

[mighty wind]

Whatever you know

If you dont know the map then you aint getting out either way

[civic hedge]

i run reserve more than any other. go to the king building on the east side of map with a big rig and no pack then just take manhole cover

[icy fable]

Reserve has a tonne of loot densely packed, pmc extracts are difficult/annoying. Woods has a lot of stashes that can be strung together for a chill loot run with little danger. Interchange is rat central and you'll get killed from the shadows or random angles you weren't predicting. Lighthouse has tonnes of high value loot, but water treatment plant is dangerous

[icy fable]

This is a marvelous method for fast loot runs, that negates the "horrible extract" aspect of the map

[civic hedge]

nope haha

[tall trail]

What type of loot can you get get from that building?

[civic hedge]

computer stuff

lighthouse has a lot of medical bags in the houses

alright enough foreplay ill bbl

[pallid kernel]

how does durability affect snipers?

i have some 60 durability mosins

so are they worth using or just sell?

[candid idol]

higher chance to malfunction

[kindred grotto]

affects the moa

[pallid kernel]

oh thats bad then

[kindred grotto]

makes them less accurate

[pallid kernel]

i guess ill just sell them then

which trader pays most for ammo?

[wooden jewel]

Mechanic is who I sell to

[pallid kernel]

ok

[civic hedge]

yo how do you get to outskirts in woods without stepping on a land mine

[coral turtle]

You ... don't go outside the map

Stay out of the red zone

@civic hedge

[civic hedge]

ooohp maybe i took a wrong turn

[coral turtle]

Mechanic, and he pays the most for all guns basically. Besides Shotguns and Boltactions ? I thiiiink. However ! Don't sell Everything to him, you need to spend money with other traders as well

If you want to level up with Traders, you need - LVL, Rep, Money Spent

You might get to the lvl and rep, but you'll need another million Rubles spent with that trader, so you'll have to spend a lot of money buying stuff from them

Instead, sell them items sometimes, to increase that MoneySpent

[rancid nova]

do i still get fence rep for killing PMC even tho i die ? as scav

[civic hedge]

i fucking hate woods

[coral turtle]

Want some help ?

@civic hedge

[civic hedge]

i just cant see where im getting shot from

[lethal ore]

You should

[civic hedge]

idk if theres any way o help me on that lol

[coral turtle]

Sounds helps a lot

[jolly wave]

just getting started this wipe, anyone in a similar spot or want to bring a timmy along with them?

[civic hedge]

true but it was pouring

[coral turtle]

You can still hear some stuff

[coral turtle]

I'm lvl 10 myself ... Also, might wanna change your name

Ah, there you go

[jolly wave]

LOL thanks

[lunar trout]

How many Apollo/Marlboro packs should I keep in my stash for quests? It's taking a lot of space right now

[coral turtle]

ughhh ... 2 or 3 of each

[jolly wave]

yeah, I'm yet to go anywhere but Woods... So might need a bit of hand holding!

[coral turtle]

@lunar trout

5 of each, besides Apollo

[lunar trout]

👍 is that a daily quest?

[coral turtle]

Nope

It's not

It's an actual quest you'll need to do

[lunar trout]

Does that mean I don't need to keep Apollo ones?

[coral turtle]

Correct

[lunar trout]

Nice

Thx

[coral turtle]

Could anybody help me with Delivery from the Past and Aquarius pt1 ?

[wheat heath]

Hi, can you guys recommend a few youtube videos i can watch? i just bought the game 🙂

[coral turtle]

First of all, besides videos, do a few offline raids

Then check out some videos.

[pallid kernel]

i found that pestily, gigabeef and veritas help a lot

[coral turtle]

I've watched a few of Lew's videos recently

They're nicely edited

And SwampFox has a lot of information throughout his videos

[pallid kernel]

true

[wheat heath]

Thanks guys!

[pallid kernel]

swampfox also makes tarkov "movies" which are awesome

[coral turtle]

^^^

[lunar trout]

Is the freeman crowbar worth anything? Or should I just sell it to npc?

[coral turtle]

I haven't watched videos that are more than 35 minutes long in ... like 2 years

SwampFox managed to keep me focused and I watched for over an hour

[pallid kernel]

yea depends on the youtuber

[rancid nova]

can this be player scav or no ?

[coral turtle]

No

It's AI

[rancid nova]

wtf

[coral turtle]

If it's a player, you have the option to "Report"

[rancid nova]

i got oneshot

[coral turtle]

And it shows you their PMC name as well

And ? Me too today

[rancid nova]

fk fragmentation

i just got into the raid

[coral turtle]

By an AI scav from 40 meters away, that was talking sideways and put a Slug in my face

[lone hinge]

bruh

[pallid kernel]

was that the one near medcamp?

[coral turtle]

Yes

xD

[pallid kernel]

he almost killed me aswell

from what i remember

[coral turtle]

Yea, sometimes they're cracked af

My mistake was that I stayed in place for too long

[pallid kernel]

you cant really predict ai tho

so i wouldnt blame it on you

[rancid nova]

how tf does it fragment 3 times at like 15% ? each

the game doesnt want me here

this is exactly why i dont bring good gear, cause of bs like this

[pallid kernel]

the key to killing scavs is using a hatchet

[coral turtle]

Nah, you kinda can. One of the biggest things is, don't Peek them 2 times, they'll have you zeroed in and aiming at you the second time you peek usually

[pallid kernel]

i heard that for special scavs

[coral turtle]

It applies to all of them

[pallid kernel]

i didnt know it applies to normal ones

[coral turtle]

Even more so to Rairders or Guards or Bosses

[pallid kernel]

yea i literally saw raiders holding corners

in videos

crazy

[coral turtle]

Yup, they do that sometimes

[pallid kernel]

at what point do i sell my damaged armor

[coral turtle]

Depends on the armor

[spice pivot]

Guys what do i do wrong. I really enjoy playing this game but im just so bad at it:D Been trying to do the salewa quest all day. got like 2 of them i do customs only and have a map that shows the med spawns etc. Either i dont find any salewas or when i do find one i cant extract. is this game so hard playing alone or what?:D

[pallid kernel]

Pacas?

[coral turtle]

Like ... once it goes below 40, I sell them

[pallid kernel]

this is the dark souls of fps games my friend

[pallid kernel]

alright

[pallid kernel]

even the best players have like 50% or 60% survival rate

so dont worry

[spice pivot]

@pallid kernel yea good to hear:D im really used to fps games but this is something else:D

[pallid kernel]

yea its really hard

you need to pour a lot of time into this game

and just be prepared to die

a lot

[pallid kernel]

are Zarya grenades any good?

[spice pivot]

Yea, and i think i really need to focus 1 map at a time to learn the extract points without a map too right

[pallid kernel]

that would be ideal

and watch a lot of guides on youtube

and dont be afraid to ask questions here

[spice pivot]

Yea, will do. Thanks man 🙂

[coral turtle]

They're like Flashbangs

But you can scare PMCs and Scavs with them

[pallid kernel]

scare?

[coral turtle]

Yea

They can hear you throw it

[rancid nova]

i deserve to die

[coral turtle]

But they don't know what nade it is

[pallid kernel]

how does that work

[rancid nova]

went nighttime and mis-stepped mountainside

[pallid kernel]

dont nades have their own sounds

[civic hedge]

lol

please everyone share your failures so i dont feel as bad

[coral turtle]

They can hear you actually pull the pin and throw it

It's still a nade afterall

[civic hedge]

i just got greedy and died like an absolute jckass so im taking a break

apparently i can say fuck but not that

[jolly wave]

I went 0-4 on factory last night 🙂

[pallid kernel]

how do i prevent getting ambushed from other pmcs

[timber steeple]

ambush them first

[pallid kernel]

but it doesnt work like that

[fathom ocean]

you about to lmfao

[elfin pendant]

my presets page has been bugged for a few days now. is there any way to fix it?

[pallid kernel]

i went to scav town in woods and a random guy started going around my shed

and when i wanted to check where he is i got killed

shot in the head

[jolly wave]

any of you guys playing atm?

[edgy plover]

Learn where you die, build a map in your head of high-traffic areas - spots you should be careful. Either build a new route, or when going through potential ambush spots be very careful about your movement. Take caution sprinting - it's super noisy. play cover to cover - and maybe take some PK's. Nothing you do will ever entirely prevent ambushes - but there's lots of little habits that mostly come with experience

[rancid nova]

i did ofc

[pallid kernel]

but like where do i start

do i just avoid any loot like the plague?

[tepid knot]

Great question! When you start playing it feels like you’re constantly getting ambushed! It takes time to learn the right “pathing” of where you should go and where you shouldn’t go. How you learn this is from recognizing where you get ambushed more and not going there. To speed this up find more experienced players to play with or streamers to watch and try to run the same routes they are when u aren’t with them

[pallid kernel]

but like how do i loot a random house

[tepid knot]

If you want to loot a house make sure to clear it before looting

[pallid kernel]

what about the guy waiting for me outside

[tepid knot]

But slowly you will learn that some places just aren’t worth looting and you will get an idea of a route on each map that you prefer to take to go to each place that is worth taking that risk of looting

[spiral tree]

Was playing as scav and someone said they had a quest where they needed to bandage and asked if i could hurt him... so I did and then he killed me 😦 I'm assuming I fell for a noob prank where he's allowed to kill without rep penalty since i hurt him first? lol

[tepid knot]

U got urself into a classic standoff! Personally I’m a big fan of playing defensively, see if you can get them to peak first or push you first. It will give you the upper hand even if they have better gear

[vocal parcel]

bring nades

nade the corner

[pallid kernel]

it feels that unless i play scav im not gonna have any fun

[tepid knot]

Yea scavs gain rep for killing other player scavs that have already shot at scavs

[pallid kernel]

when im pmc i dont survive 5min

and thats not an exaggeration

[whole thistle]

you're probably wandering into pvp areas and terrible positioning since you're so used to scav

[tepid knot]

When you’re new to the game it definitely feels that way! It took me being willing to play with others to start having fun and learning how to play better!

[subtle mica]

guys how does the mosin reload work? when I have a full mag and shoot only one bullet he always loads 2 bullets

[pallid kernel]

i do play with others sometimes but i want to be able to survive myself without someone elses help

[whole thistle]

you eject one bullet when you open the bolt

[pallid kernel]

cuz me getting oneshot every raid doesnt help me at all

[subtle mica]

so that means when i reload with bullets remaining i just lose a bullet for nothing?

[whole thistle]

yes

you can pick it up off the ground if you want

[subtle mica]

yeah but theres not always time for that xd

[tepid knot]

I totally feel that! However a majority of this game isn’t who is better at pvp or even who has better gear, it’s where you are choosing to go. When you do play with others try to take notice in where they are going and not going

[whole thistle]

just bring a lot of bullets theyre cheap asf

[subtle mica]

10 k for 30 bullets is cheap?

[pallid kernel]

surely the few houses at scav town arent the most sought after area right?

[whole thistle]

what bullets are you using

[tepid knot]

When running mosins I usually carry a whole stack in my pocket

[subtle mica]

the only ones available with ll 1 traders and no flea xd

[whole thistle]

those are only like 300 rubles

i usually bring 40 extra

[subtle mica]

i bring 30 in total and it costs 10 k for 30

[whole thistle]

also if you hold down click to not cycle the bolt then press r you dont lose a live round

[tepid knot]

Well… no, however with many people trying to get scav kills there will be a lot of pmcs going through there rn and the loot usually isn’t good enough to justify being pinched into the buildings

[whole thistle]

could do that

[jolly wave]

the house with the two grenade boxes is relatively sought after in my experience

[whole thistle]

@drowsy notch hi bestie

[drowsy notch]

Is this the most Meta I can make the mutant?

Sorry I use a weird resolution

[whole thistle]

use the 9x18 conversion for less recoil tbh

[drowsy notch]

?

[vocal parcel]

rk2 grip, way better pistol grip then you are getting there

[drowsy notch]

Don’t have enough credits 😔

[pallid kernel]

so is there a place where i wont get murked the second i join in?

[drowsy notch]

I’m not high enough level

To buy rk2

[subtle mica]

hold down what

[tepid knot]

R u going for low recoil? Usually meta is a nice middle ground in between both ergo and recoil but if u prefer just low recoil, it looks pretty good

[whole thistle]

the shoot button

you only cycle the gun once you let go of mouse1

[subtle mica]

oh so i cant let go after a shot tho

[drowsy notch]

I’m looking for a high ergo gun, gonna use this as a dmr/sniper

[vocal parcel]

why not use an sr25 then?

it shoots cheaper and better rounds for sniping

[tepid knot]

Should work well then! Just remember that if you’re using it in semi recoil isn’t going to matter as much

[dense pagoda]

how does labs work? why cant i hit the switch sometimes and sometimes i can?

and do hitting the switches the only kind of spawning raiders

or can they spawn natrually

[tepid knot]

They spawn naturally throughout the raid

Especially around the main room on 2nd and 1st but yea the switches sometimes work and sometimes don’t

[dense pagoda]

its just random theres not a certain reason why they dont work?

thanks

[tepid knot]

But that only goes for the garage door exits

The downstairs exits should always be on

[dense pagoda]

so thats labs way of a extract not being open

[tepid knot]

Exactly!

[dense pagoda]

ok sweet

[pallid kernel]

i dont understand how can people learn this game if they are dying every raid

[tepid knot]

That’s how u learn at first is by dying

Every death has a lesson

[pallid kernel]

and not just dying, i would be fine if i died in a gunfight

this is just trash

getting hit in the head

from nowhere

[tepid knot]

I’d love to help you in the specific situations helping u know what happened!

[pallid kernel]

situation, im going somewhere and drop dead

head eyes, head eats yada yada

what do i learn from that

[tepid knot]

What map? Where were you?

[pallid kernel]

woods

usually

in customs i can usually see where i died from

and can at least see the muzzle flash

[tepid knot]

There are many spots people like to overlook areas of interest on any map but especially on woods

[pallid kernel]

like i feel like there is nothing i can do

to help it

i feel like an npc

[dense pagoda]

amo i close to were i restore power/

[tepid knot]

Yea it can definitely feel that way! Everyone, even the best can get caught off guard but there is usually patterns in where you die from, on woods if you see the muzzle flash from where you are dying, next raid go over to where the person shot u from and you might understand how it was so easy for them

[tepid knot]

Yea go through the doors back left of u and back out and next to the staircase is a switch

[pallid kernel]

but like should i just avoid looting or something

i dont see how i can progress

both in game and skill wise

[potent crater]

what is this? even with barters off I Cant find it on flea? not even as like existing anywhere

[whole thistle]

low res ah key

[tepid knot]

Honestly, when I started playing I would loot everything and I do think it’s a part of the process but you do learn that some things aren’t worth looting

[whole thistle]

its bugged on the flea apparently

[potent crater]

wouldnt let me sell it eiterh so i was confused

[tepid knot]

But for you, learn what places you don’t die at when you loot

[potent crater]

is it any good or what?

[pallid kernel]

so far i died at every place i tried to loot

[tepid knot]

Nah not super good, not needed for task should be like 50k

[dense pagoda]

this doors?

[tepid knot]

Try looting other spots

[pallid kernel]

the only two raids i survived is where i had someone with me

[coral turtle]

You didn't die at the Medical Camp today

So don't lie xD

[tepid knot]

Nah back over by the elevator there is a white door u can go through

[potent crater]

play with teamates more then just go to #pvp-lfg

[pallid kernel]

but i kinda want to learn to play by myself

[dense pagoda]

ive been in this room 20 x lol

ig i couldnt find the switch

[tepid knot]

Yes!

[potent crater]

that is gonna be 10x as hard but you can do waht ever you want

[tepid knot]

Go through the room

[rancid nova]

anyone wanna help me kill scavs on interchange >?

also visit the shops

[tepid knot]

There’s another door at the end

[pallid kernel]

i just dont see a road to success in this game, for now at least

[potent crater]

trust me there is it just takes 100s of hours

[coral turtle]

Bad idea

[tepid knot]

Yes go through door

[potent crater]

take a right through the door and then a left and next to the stairs is a button

[tepid knot]

And then head through the smaller hallway that will lead to some stairs

[pallid kernel]

i feel like i should just do pistol runs

so i have pretty much nothing to lose

[whole thistle]

cheap smgs or rifles are a similar price to the 9mm pistols

[potent crater]

if you want to you can I would just reccomend scav EVERY time it is up but make sure to maintain rep and focus on doing tasks

[whole thistle]

^

[tepid knot]

Yea a lot of people learn the game by running pistols

[potent crater]

no I dont think thos are the stairs

I could be wrong tho

[pallid kernel]

i can extract just fine when im a scav

but when im pmc

i die

[whole thistle]

i learned maps way faster when i stopped wasting my scavs on factory lol

[potent crater]

when you are pmc you have to fight scavs and you have different extracts

[tepid knot]

Too far go back before the door… wait that’s the right stairs even

Idk how u got there from where u were

[pallid kernel]

ik

[tepid knot]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/lab

[potent crater]

i make money when i scav reserve but I get a ton of rep on factory because I just always have this fence daily where someone has to hit me in the leg so I can "heal a bleed"

[dense pagoda]

the room is on my right

the power room

[potent crater]

can you send another ss?

[tepid knot]

Go right then left

[whole thistle]

bruh 💀

[potent crater]

I thoguht it wouldnt work but I made .3 2 days ago and .5 yesterday

[dense pagoda]

fuck yea

[tepid knot]

Yes!

[dense pagoda]

that will spawn raiders

[tepid knot]

Ggs

[potent crater]

then just run back to elevator

[tepid knot]

It can

But yea just run back to elevator

[fathom ocean]

if anybodys scav has this mask can we queue up and you drop it for me I cant find this mask for shit

[potent crater]

scav factory a lot and you can find it mine doesnt have it tho

[fathom ocean]

you dont think I tried that bruh

[potent crater]

idk what you did

[tepid knot]

Keep on trying

[potent crater]

worked for me tho

[fathom ocean]

thats what I planned on doing 💀

[tepid knot]

It’s annoying cuz the game doesn’t like to give u the items u need but you will find one! I believe!

[coral turtle]

^^^

[pallid kernel]

can anyone recommend me a cheap pistol i can carry into raid

[fathom ocean]

I have 800 hours I alr know that

[coral turtle]

Grach

[tepid knot]

Pm pistol from prapor

[coral turtle]

Oh nvm

You can't buy it at lvl1

[potent crater]

PM pistol, shoot a scav in the head with a right hand peak so it cant see you, free scav kit

[pallid kernel]

makarov?

[tepid knot]

Yes

[potent crater]

do you guys believe in me to get kappa?

[coral turtle]

._.

[fathom ocean]

yeah

[tepid knot]

It takes time but I believe anyone can do it, it’s not a skill issue getting to kappa it’s a time issue

[solemn vortex]

Hey, any tips for a new player? I’m also new to pc 🙂

[potent crater]

play with friends

[rare niche]

I have rating knowledge I must bast to the next generation

[tepid knot]

Take it slow, play in a squad with people, and play ur scavs! Try to learn one map at a time

[potent crater]

dont get upset when you die

I have 1.2k hours and die constantly

[tepid knot]

Every death is a learning experience

[potent crater]

^^^

[rare niche]

Find this https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/AK_5.45_Design_Aggressor_handguard hand guard stuff it in your pouch and put you weapon mod finds on it

[tepid knot]

I mean yea, but that’s a very specific thing lmao!

[rare niche]

Bro it works

[potent crater]

I dont like doing the handguard thing

especially if he has an alpha

[rare niche]

I carry 3 of them in my gamma at a time

[coral turtle]

I have a Gamma and still don't like it xD

That's my Gamma. Sometimes I might have Painkillers or extra ammo

[tepid knot]

Overall, the game can be really painful to learn. It’s more important to learn how to enjoy playing the game than it is to learn how to be the best you can at playing it

[coral turtle]

Or replace this with more valuable items I find inraid

[valid trout]

hey

[coral turtle]

?

[turbid halo]

got the game last night, cant figure out how to extract consistently, any tips?

[coral turtle]

You gotta use a map

[valid trout]

lemme help you as i have a gamma

[tepid knot]

Play with friends

[gaunt rampart]

Extract consistently as in finding extraction points or not getting killed?

[coral turtle]

?

[valid trout]

replace esmarch with a calok-b, replace splint with alu splint

[turbid halo]

finding them

[valid trout]

replace car with a salwea or ifak

[tepid knot]

It takes time to learn where you should and shouldn’t go people call this good and bad pathing

[rare niche]

Why are you carrying cheap meds in your gamma

[gaunt rampart]

Ah yeah I had that issue too, use a map and go into offline practice raids without AI just to learn the maps

[coral turtle]

I don't want to use those right now, I only have a few Caloks and Alu Splints

[gaunt rampart]

Get used to major landmarks and stuff to find where you spawned in, then use a map to find extraction

[tepid knot]

Ohhh use a tool like map genie to help u find them just look up (tarkov map) tarkov map

[coral turtle]

And only a few Salewas and IFAKs

[rare niche]

That’s just defeating the poit

[whole thistle]

make sure you bring a sling bag with you so you're not tagged

[coral turtle]

Why would I keep them in my inventory and just die with them ?

[rare niche]

You won’t lose them?

[valid trout]

yes, u can always replace them. a car and esmarch and regular splint is bad.

[tepid knot]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov

[digital badge]

use them you will find more

[coral turtle]

MATE I'M LEVEL 10 !!!

[pallid kernel]

i thought i only need a gun to not get tagged

[coral turtle]

This is my kit

[rare niche]

Put them in your rig and lose it faster

[turbid halo]

ive looked at the maps online, but i have a hard time knowing where im at on the map to correlate where i need to go

[digital badge]

which means you only need to get through 5 more levels before you have an infinite stock of meds

[potent crater]

just use a meta mutant

[coral turtle]

I don't get into High intensity fights

[whole thistle]

pistol only with no gear doesnt count

[digital badge]

so use your best meds over those last 5 levels

[pallid kernel]

what ammo should i take for my makarov?

[tepid knot]

Dog u look fine don’t sweat it with what they’re saying, as you level up you will want other things in there but for now that’s fine

[pallid kernel]

im thinking the ppt gzh

[whole thistle]

they're all equally shit so it doesnt really matter lmao

[coral turtle]

I'm usually fine with these, I find more in raids.

[valid trout]

why use markov

[tepid knot]

That will work, the key with it is hitting head

[coral turtle]

I know, I've been around for 4 wipes xD

[pallid kernel]

the only head thats gonna get hit is mine

[coral turtle]

Because he's low level ...

[pallid kernel]

that pistol is for scavs

so im not armless

[valid trout]

@coral turtle my gamma setup

[narrow creek]

Hi, I just hit Chemicals Part 4. I'm planning on handing in to skier, but should I get to level 24 before I tank the other's rep? I'm 19 now.

[coral turtle]

Good for you, I like mine.

[valid trout]

when fail the tasks

you get a task

that regains the 0.25

[coral turtle]

I often resort to taking my meds Out of my Gamma for better items

[tepid knot]

Lmao but yea try to hit a scavs head with it and run ur scavs when u can! More time to learn the map and a free kit if u get out!

[coral turtle]

That's why I don't take "expensive" meds

[tepid knot]

That’s a good way to do it! Might as well fill it with something!

[rare niche]

I would though I pain killer in it other wise very god 8.2/10

[whole thistle]

why 24? also no you don't need to wait

[coral turtle]

Last wipe, when I had the Flea market and a few more items, yea, I always had an IFAK/Salewa/AFAK and a CalokB in there, but now ? I'm lvl 10 for f's sake

[odd field]

where can i get tank battery?

[digital badge]

reserve and lighthouse

[valid trout]

airdrop ur best bet

[coral turtle]

Reserve is your best bet I think ?

Last week I found 2 of them in the same crate xD

[pallid kernel]

im tired of running scavs

[narrow creek]

I was thinking both therapist and prapor hit 3 at 24, but it's just therapist @whole thistle

[valid trout]

FINNALY

[coral turtle]

Both me and my friend hobbled our way to D-2 🤣

[tepid knot]

Honestly, if you need this tank battery for car repair to craft the car batteries then it’s easier to just save up the money and buy one

[rare niche]

Nice

[whole thistle]

if you lose rep you lose the loyalty level

[narrow creek]

oh ok

[pallid kernel]

should i take any heals or no?

[odd field]

need it for better pouch

[whole thistle]

you get easy quests to regain their rep right after handing chemical 4 in to anyone

[coral turtle]

Reserve, Lighthouse, Airdrops or buy it from the Flea

[narrow creek]

Ok great. Thanks for the help!

[tepid knot]

I know you want to learn on your own and not run scavs constantly but ur choosing the most painful way to learn the game. There are tons of people in this discord that will run raids with u all day long helping u know how to play

[tepid knot]

It will be easier and more time effective to save up the money for one

[pallid kernel]

i can orient myself on woods just fine, but scav runs get really boring

[valid trout]

they do, but keep doing them

[tepid knot]

Put some heals in ur ass ya

[valid trout]

esspically as ur new

[pallid kernel]

and im not struggling for money

[valid trout]

its a way to learn the games ropes

[pallid kernel]

i have almost double than what ive started with

[tepid knot]

I don’t like scaving but I still do it when I’m broke, try to use them as a way to learn maps u don’t know yet too

[whole thistle]

always have heals

stick stuff in your container if you want to lose 0 money

[pallid kernel]

what should i take? bandages, esmarch, splint and ai 2 maybe?

i dont know if i need analgin

since i only have 4 slots

[tepid knot]

If u got money then definitely just play with people in this discord even, build out a kit, and hope for the best

[pallid kernel]

i like playing by myself but i dont like dying constalty

[whole thistle]

you could take painkillers instead of a splint

since you might have more than 1 break

[pallid kernel]

alright

do i take the two use or one use bandage

[whole thistle]

if you have flea or therapist 2 use the 2 use one

[pallid kernel]

i dont

[tepid knot]

Yea it can be frustrating but finding at least a duo partner that u like playing with can really improve your in game experience

[valid trout]

i agree with @tepid knot duo or a group is really useful, thats how i got better at the game

i play more solo but a duo or gorup is useful when new to the game

[pallid kernel]

i guess

im still gonna go woods now

with makarov in hand

[tepid knot]

I got this game years ago and raged quit right away cuz I didn’t have people to play with and it was just too frustrating, it wasn’t until I had some friends start to play that I was willing to learn the game

[sharp barn]

anyone looking to party up and do some quests perchance?

[odd field]

but where can i buy one for money?

[valid trout]

litteraly me

[valid trout]

flea market

[valid trout]

#pvp-lfg

[tepid knot]

Flea market, if u arnt level 15 then grind ur level up

[sharp barn]

thx

[tepid knot]

Work on ur tasks

[valid trout]

yw

[odd field]

i have 15 lvl but i didnt saw any offer

[tepid knot]

Look up battery

They usually around 400-800k

[odd field]

okay after raid i will check

[rare niche]

Make sure it say if it says it needed to be found in raid or not

[tepid knot]

This is for getting a better pouch? Wouldn’t need to be fir no clue if u actually need it or not but taking their word for it cuz I’m out rn

Besides a daily there is no task U need tank battery for

[rare niche]

Yeah you need it for kappa

[tepid knot]

You do not need it for kappa… it is not needed for collector

[tight ether]

What is the viability of running solo?

I am just trying to reach level 15, I am almost 14

[tepid knot]

When ur new it is very bad u will prolly die

[rare niche]

What

[tight ether]

the thing I need help with, is learning areas to extract on places

like, in groups of 5, it is too much

[rare niche]

Is it your first wipe

[tight ether]

groups of 2-3-4 I am great

I have like 70 hours in

yeah its my first wipe

[tepid knot]

Yea try to get someone to run duos with u while they help u learn

[tight ether]

I bought the game in 2020

barely played it, I have been running alot recently, I have way more raids survived than died on, but I am just wondering, when can I run solo?

[tepid knot]

U can run solo at any time but it’s safer when u know the layout of a map and know how to get out

You still need to learn the pathing and know where to go and not to go but you can definitely solo once you know where not to go

[rare niche]

Yeah

[tight ether]

I like to practice on offline factory

[elfin pendant]

how do you buy good armor or armored rigs now? last time i played you could sell anything in the flea but now theres nothing over level 4

[fervent turret]

level your traders

[rare niche]

Yeah

[fervent turret]

and do quests to unlock some of them, some you’ll just farm bosses/guards

[elfin pendant]

but even for a lvl 4 or 5 rig like the ars arma the only option is to have ragman lvl 3-4 and do a barter

why did they make it this hard to get good armor?

same thing for ammo. i cant buy any ammo like even m856a1 or m855a1

[valid trout]

just got to friend form the west....

[fervent turret]

they want you to level and do quests and work for your gear

[elfin pendant]

so i really have to use lvl 4 armor and crappy bullets until i have high level traders:?

[digital badge]

level 4 armor isnt that bad lol

[fervent turret]

level 4 is the norm now

[tepid knot]

Lvl 4 armor is insanely good rn!

[valid trout]

level 4 aint that bad this early into wipe

[elfin pendant]

hmm ok

[tepid knot]

It’s not even bad later on tbh

[elfin pendant]

last time i played was 2 wipes ago and once i reached 4-5 million rubles i was just running lvl 5-6 armor every raid

but now i cant

[digital badge]

yeah thats the point

[tepid knot]

Yea they changed that

Gotta grind now

[fervent turret]

your complaint extends to everyone lol, everyone will use earlier tier armor and ammo, so still even-ish fights

[elfin pendant]

also

even a wartech rig which is level 4 you need ragman lvl 4 wtf

[tepid knot]

But don’t worry they’ve made rounds like bp harder to get too so ur lvl 4 won’t get destroyed as quick

Gotta work with what u got

[rare niche]

Barters are great

[fervent turret]

m80 is harder to get now as well, so lvl4 feelin good

[elfin pendant]

yea but even the barter is lvl 3 ragman...

yea i guess i wasnt just used to it. i guess its the same for everyone

last time i played this game 1 week into the wipe there was already slicks and m995 going around

[rare niche]

They are few and far between

[valid trout]

what do i sell on flea

[rare niche]

Sugar?

I mean do you have moon shining stuff

And the chocolate

[orchid cobalt]

yo can someone please help me with the delivery office quest from prapor please? I have been trying for so long

[fervent turret]

murder everyone on factory and then do it

[orchid cobalt]

I just get decimated on customs

or insta dead on factory

[tepid knot]

paracord, relay, mscissors, mtube, aesa, majaica, bolts, hose, cat

everything else to trader

ssd and diary to PK

Should I keep the one gold chain I found or sell

[whole thistle]

sell

[pallid kernel]

well, the pistol run went reasonably well

i didnt die

for one

and got some loot

[tepid knot]

Nice!

[solemn vortex]

This is the situation I’m in rn lol. Don’t have friends that play it sadly

[pallid kernel]

found a salewa

[rare niche]

What about chumming

[whole thistle]

you can buy them then

[little mango]

anyone around to run a scav run with me? i just need the help around the map lol

[whole thistle]

doesnt matter much

[tepid knot]

Big W

[tepid knot]

they do not need to be fir for chumming better to just rebuy them later

[tepid knot]

its funny how it works, i went from not having friends to play with, to having some, to not wanting to play with them!

[rare niche]

Ok very cool

[pallid kernel]

is the mp5 any good, since thats one of the things i found aswell?

or should i sell it?

[rare niche]

What mp5

[tepid knot]

mp5 can be very good because of the low recoil

[rare niche]

Yes

Reasonable ammo rarity

[tepid knot]

personally i would sell it but its really preference and if you havent ran an mp5 yet, you should try! some ppl love them!

[pallid kernel]

can i even buy ammor for it?

[rare niche]

Yeah pk

[tepid knot]

yea should be able to buy like pso i think

[pallid kernel]

ok

ill probably try it then

tho i also dont want to bring guns to raids anymore

[rare niche]

Is it the 2 or 3 slot one though

[pallid kernel]

3 slot

[rare niche]

Ok

[whole thistle]

you start with like 500 pst just use it

[rare niche]

Very kool

[pallid kernel]

i kinda sold all my 9x19

[rare niche]

To who

[tepid knot]

its fine u can buy more just not pst

[pallid kernel]

to mechanic

[whole thistle]

bruh'

[rare niche]

Bruh

[pallid kernel]

since i had no more pp 19s

and a shit ton of ammo for them

[rare niche]

Oh your a best person

[primal pawn]

Why doesn't mechanic want to buy vpo .366?

[tepid knot]

low durability

[rare niche]

Yes

[pallid kernel]

i mean, i was told to sell what i dont need/use

so i did that

that ammo doesnt seem to be amazing anyway

[tepid knot]

no hate for selling pst i do it too but thats cuz ik i wont use 9m

[pallid kernel]

mag dump to kill class 3

seems really bad

[fervent turret]

glocks

[tepid knot]

if you want to max out ur profits take everthing off the gun and sell that to mechanic then sell gun to fence

[rare niche]

Ye

[pallid kernel]

rgd 5 or f 1, which is better and whats the difference?

[rare niche]

Take extra point if it already has something cool on it

[whole thistle]

double click and check the timer or delay or whatever

shorter is better

[pallid kernel]

same fuze

one has more fragments but less damage per

[frigid geyser]

this is why when people tell me im a meta slave for telling them to only use 7.62x39,51,54R, i just mind my buisness and carry on

leg meta, or ammo that actually works, pick a poison lol

[pallid kernel]

yea

[tepid knot]

hit head

[pallid kernel]

it aint that easy

if everyone hit headshots it wouldnt be a problem

[tepid knot]

no ik im just joshing em

[frigid geyser]

also hitting head can lowkey be more tragic than you would think. bounce probability go BRR

gotta put it clean into their eyeball

[tepid knot]

meta is there for a reason the ammo and gun types are more meta to listen to but like how to build out a gun is more preference meta cuz u might like a gun built out differently and feel more comfortable with it in a different way

[frigid geyser]

as far as guns go, i think that is stupid to debate a meta over, because all guns are is a fancy vessel for your bullets in this game

and that is totally up to you what you want to use/mod weapon wise imo

but its undeniable that 7.62 are just stupidly superior in every way in this game, its kind of dumb how good they are tbh

[tepid knot]

but there is not argument over what type of rounds are the best and what calibers will work best too!

[pallid kernel]

how do i improve my fighting skills, i either dont meet any players or just die

[frigid geyser]

if your feeling bold, hop into factory with some cheap guns and just send it

[tepid knot]

i personally didnt do this but if u got money full send factory, you will get quick pvp

[frigid geyser]

will get fights lol

factory training arc

also, are makarov bullets really slow or what, i was trying to hit a scav in the head pretty much point blank and couldnt

while he was moving

[fervent turret]

moa on makarov

[frigid geyser]

you have a couple of things to account for when shooting in tarkov

MOA is a big one yee, but also muzzle velocity, recoil, and gun condition play a role

gun condition mainly because it changes MOA

[pallid kernel]

i imagine makarov is just shit right?

a full condition one

[tepid knot]

yea they are shitty

[frigid geyser]

theres no like perfect first shot accuracy fortnite type stuff happening

you pull the trigger and pray for it to fly true haha

and yes quite shit

[pallid kernel]

what about the TT

[whole thistle]

just as bad

[frigid geyser]

every so slightly less shit, but still shit

[pallid kernel]

i got it from a scav

[fervent turret]

use 9x19 if you gotta use pistols

[tepid knot]

if u got money, id just invest in running more of a kit than just a pistol

[frigid geyser]

have you gotten jaeger yet?

[pallid kernel]

yes

[fervent turret]

or sr1mp/five-seven if you have those unlocked

[frigid geyser]
