[solid remnant]

can someone help me with my quests

[woven spear]

how tf do i actually get good? i keep getting rolled

its all just chads instakilling me

[patent jolt]

Considering us new players are up against dudes who got anywhere from 100-5000 hours in the game, it's difficult, just keep dying and learning and dying

[earnest aspen]

are there any good ways to lvl up vitality other than just playing the game?

[merry marsh]

trust me its not just chads. it's probably just players with better game sense

Almost none have faceshields so you can definitely one tap with your gun, especially if you caught them in surprise

[woven spear]

how would i improve, so i could start winning?

[merry marsh]

Memorize PMC spawns and the game flow is a big part of survival. Inspect the reason why you died

Anyway, lighthouse is absolutely busted as a map lmao. everytime I go there with my friends, we come out with 200k+ gear from dead pmcs and other shit

[ashen folio]

If anyone gets the double barrel in their scav could you please let me kill you? I need it for a task. Thanks

[ashen folio]

[ashen oasis]

[spring eagle]

The coyote one can’t have a face shield only the black one

[ashen folio]

okay awesome thanks dude!

[wind barn]

@boreal elm

[deft fjord]

You are wrong. It’s 280k

[silver venture]

help with reserve quest?

[potent timber]

damn really? maybe its just limit to me picking up more than 45k in raid? unless that recently changed up i see now that yeah you can fit 280

[pulsar river]

If you killed a rogue in the last 10ish raids they’re hostile

[ashen folio]

Yo does anyone here main lighthouse

[slim sonnet]

I do

[eternal lodge]

Buff smokes please

I want to see people actually use the damn things properly; decrease the bloom time!

[slim sonnet]

use a different smoke grenade

[eternal lodge]

The American one?

[slim sonnet]

yeah the m18 is far superior

[eternal lodge]

Ye well, watched a few youtube videos on smoke nades blooming, and it's about a minute..

About 1 minute, so it's close to realistic

[ashen folio]

What can I get for the Merin key?

[swift trench]

Finally decided to go through the tarkov shooter line, at part 8, time to spend a week in woods

[north crown]

is there a way to mute your hideout noises like the noise the damn lights make that is extremely irritating

without muting the whole game*

[icy galleon]

love tarkov. best game ever. devs are the best. fix 10 bugs and unleash another 50 into the wild. love it

[full night]

/programmerhumor

[livid urchin]

[ashen folio]

[astral tulip]

Coyote can't take faceshields

[serene hawk]

[crisp palm]

nah bro they just delete it and threaten to ban you

[serene hawk]

sick

[serene hawk]

ty

[crisp palm]

Ye

happened to me and a buddy recently so

[dapper marlin]

Exfil helmets take special face shields

[arctic kelp]

nah it's because the coyote brown helm can't take faceshields for some reason

[dapper marlin]

Wasnt there a "TW Exfil Faceshield Tan"?

[pale blade]

The mounting system is different on the tan one in tarkov. Doesn't take them.

[arctic kelp]

The faceshield is tan but it still can only go on the black one. I know it's super weird

[dapper marlin]

Huh, weird

Glad Altyn and Rhys doesnt have these kind of issues lul

[onyx wind]

did they fix solar this patch?

[wide lagoon]

I JUST FOUND RED KEYCARD

I HAVE BEATEN TARKOV

[flint raft]

how do u buy stuff off flea without having to confirm?

[toxic hound]

Press Y after pressing the buy button

[flint raft]

ok, thx

[shrewd dock]

Nerf scavs

Explain to me how 30 rounds of m62 from .300 blackout can delete a pmc wearing a korund and tagilla mask from 50 meters but can't kill a scav wearing 3m at point blank

[marsh shore]

bruh cant post gifs

[ruby mauve]

is it better to use the crafted moonshine on the scav case or sell it on the flea?

[sinful vault]

Scav case is for flex and for possible profit... so u can yolo or sell it

Its up to you

[modest crane]

how do i know what servers i can play on without having alot of ping?

[haughty topaz]

sounds like you blacked out 3 of his limbs, stomach and thorax

[sinful vault]

In launcher you can change servers (left from the play button)

[modest crane]

how much ping is too much to play with?

[shrewd dock]

It took my buddy a full 60 roun mag of m856a1 to kill him after

[sinful vault]

70 is a lot

[modest crane]

ok thanks

[sinful vault]

[haughty topaz]

damn. try offline abit maybe. idk

[sinful vault]

Yea i hate altyn slick scavs

[haughty topaz]

this was a 3m scav though

[sinful vault]

With killa hp

[haughty topaz]

just aim for the head. if u have 60 round drums and no scopes or sights...

[shrewd dock]

It was point blank. Couldn't aim

[lyric lagoon]

Bruh

[dry kernel]

whats the best way to convert eur to usd?

[livid urchin]

njnyone qwanna run some

[runic zephyr]

Exchange store

[dry kernel]

whats that

[runic zephyr]

exchange store

[dry kernel]

idk what do u mean by exchange store

[modest crane]

what currency is the website in, google is giving me so many different answers

[stark bloom]

Depends how ur paying I’m pretty sure it’s euros tho

[ruby mauve]

do i have to empty all my scav junkboxes for the case or say i sort my stash, would it put the first case on the left or right?

[dapper marlin]

It uses up the first one that you bought

[ruby mauve]

yes i know but does the game recognize it while sorting?

[dapper marlin]

Yes the game knows which junkbox you bought earlier

If this did not answer your question im afraid i dont know what you exactly asking

[ruby mauve]

Im asking: does the game recognize which case was bought first while sorting?
so if it does it would put it on the right or something like that

[dapper marlin]

If you talking about normal sorting i dont know if it actually recognizes it or sort it like that

[spark mural]

Can you still get lab cards in mrk dorms? For example in a keycardholder ?

[full night]

y

[spark mural]

You sure? I heared that they patched it but idk 🤷🏻‍♂️

[full night]

what’s there to patch

marked rooms having loot is a bug? lol

[spark mural]

Braindead? They nerf the loot with a patch

[full night]

a patch usually refers to small updates containing hotfixes to bugs

[velvet hawk]

No it doesn't

[full night]

they don’t need a patch to mess with world spawnrates as it pulls from numbers on their database

[spark mural]

lmaoooo

[velvet hawk]

You're being pedantic as this guy is clearly just using it as a synonym to "changed"

Regardless, certain containers which spawn loose (like wallets, keycard holders, rigs) can have cards in. Though I think they might have nerfed rigs

[spark mural]

And when do they nerf the loot? 99% with a bigger update/patch to the game

[full night]

they can do it anytime

[royal night]

Anyways, no, it can still spawn after dynamic loot

[spark mural]

thx boyz

[full night]

if u keep up with the website that shows live changes to the database you’ll see updates constantly…

[royal night]

That’s it. End of the argument y’all can go your ways

[full night]

blunt damage buff two wipes ago happened entirely serverside and required no client updates

[spark mural]

😂😂 hahahahah

[full night]

rigs don’t have cards or keys methinks

[spark mural]

My man lives 2 wipes ago

[full night]

you have had keys or cards in a worldspawn rig? I haven’t

[rough cape]

ahmagad scav spawned with marked key

extracted with it. the other day scav spawned with Hillside House key, also made it out. So fkin good.

i can now finish my quest to mark damn circle... never found it opened

[oak moon]

Its always open when I wan a open it

Got 4 marked keys i gotra use up

[rough cape]

crazy, went there like 40 times, always closed (or died)

[dapper oasis]

My friend found a blue card in one last wipe lol

[fallow badge]

Anyone know if they fixed solar yet

[hollow meteor]

They'll fix it with next wipe I bet

[lyric dawn]

The game doesn't sort into boxes for you

[warm egret]

i went dorms in a night raid late to get safe loot, and it was open, people be weird second when to open it and not to

[acoustic echo]

Is buying the components for the beta container worth it as a standard edition player? I have plenty of money so thats not much of an issue. But will I be able to get a better one for free at some point?

[pale shuttle]

Wait until Epsilon at the end of the Punisher line

[robust hare]

depends on how fast you get through quests.
If you can work through to Epsilon fast enough, no need for Beta.
If you do maybe a few raids a day if that, then it can be worth getting Beta.

[wild bough]

for me beta was 100% worth when i didn’t have eod

(but i am pretty bad so punisher was taking me ages)

[spark mural]

they do

[pale shuttle]

Can confirm

World spawns for rigs and backpacks have keys

[full garnet]

so when i'm finding a shit scav backpack in a stash i should search it just in case?

[pale shuttle]

No, those aren't world spawns. I'm talking about the ones you find that spawn naturally out of containers

[full garnet]

oh like loose loot

[pale shuttle]

The one I can think of immediately is the MBSS that spawns in the tent in USEC on woods

[full garnet]

ty

[pale shuttle]

Ye, those can spawn literally anything

[spark mural]

or on the old gas table (customs)

[pale shuttle]

Yup

[pale shuttle]

I don't think so, watch your back
@ashen folio

[ruby mauve]

how do i adjust for movement+ distance?

[sly dock]

how do i pull out compass

[foggy island]

anyone having issues with the thicc weapons case barter from jaeger?

[little cipher]

U

[ruby mauve]

if it says theres some error try when he restocks, people ale prob getting it right away

[pale shuttle]

It's faster to get Barters through the flea rather than the restock on the store page

[swift trench]

Trying to get peacekeeper maxed is literally making my hair fall out

[acoustic lake]

what i hate about this game is how scav system works omg
An enemy player scav starts shooting at me but he misses his shots right, i shoot back hit him once but i do not kill him. He peeks another angle, i get him.
end screen: -0.1

so i'm supposed to wait for him to kill me in order for me not to lose any karma or what?

[tepid solstice]

its hard for the system to determain blame probably without atleast one shot landing from them

[median crescent]

I sometimes feel so bad when I kill a lowbie... just take their tags, let them keep their gear. I know, some Scav or another PMC might loot them clean, but, at least I let them be.

[pale shuttle]

Sadly that be how it be, you can't determine intent with software

[rough cape]

or can you ? #computersarealive

[median crescent]

... Oh come on game.

I died 0,9 second away from Extraction, from Exhaustion. Even though the game was not giving me warnings that I was so low.

Ah well...

[ashen folio]

Anyone above lvl 15 and want to help me please?

[pale shuttle]

You get massive black borders on your screen, you get debuff markers on the top left, you start taking damage, and your stamina Regen drops

That should be enough

[median crescent]

That was the odd part though. Like, I knew i had to keep myself hydrated and fed not tp pass out. When I got to the Interchange" Railway" I topped myself up to around 50 Hydro and Energy. Then I shuffle-walked all the way to extract. When I reach the extract and get the countdown I suddenly get the black borders (they did not appear before) and I drop over.

[torpid sluice]

can someone tell me if the stock of the thicc cases are bugged?

[median crescent]

Does Exhaustion instantly kill me if my Stomach is destro- Ooooh. I think I know what killed me.

My Head was, basically, 0. So even the mini-tick from Exhaustion finished me off.

[pale shuttle]

Yup. That would do it

[shadow panther]

What’s a good barter trade for the dorms marked key?

[noble cave]

@leaden harbor

[soft kayak]

The one for the reserve marked keys on jaegar 3

U can usually get it for ~₽1M

[shadow panther]

I mean I found a dorms key, rn i’m trying to offload it to help myself get my hideout completed

Rubles now > rubles later

[honest sail]

can I kill raiders as a scav

[ashen folio]

anyone wanna trade for pkpm (the one in the jaegar barter for 314 marked) on the flea of course

[viral lodge]

Whats the best Resort key u have the best expierence with, and what do you get there?

[swift trench]

Damn, I just lost a rivals paca, anyone know how much they go for?

[inner frost]

40k

[swift trench]

Oh damn I thought they were rarer lmao

[autumn turtle]

Anyone know if I hand in a quest item that has, for example all my backpacks stacked in it. will those disappear?

i've 3 pilgrims and no idea which one is which in the hand-in menu.

[worldly cosmos]

servers are having a mental breakdown?

[spring eagle]

Insure the one you want to hand in

[ashen folio]

What's the HIllhouse House key worth? Or should I hang onto it

[solid garnet]

everybody's gangsta until some huangyong98124-87124 comes with aimbot...

jesus to cheat in video game these guys must have really tiny willies

[green drift]

"selling" dorms marked for merin

[quasi island]

What is the best way to kill reshala when they spawn on fortress?

[lethal idol]

should i use, or sell my 11SR key card? i want to make the most profit

[rancid junco]

Use

Do you want to be extract camped or not is the only question

[worldly cosmos]

yo when you're dehydrated, only your health goes down right

and you gotta keep healing? I need to do the dehydration mission from ya boy jaeger

[sweet beacon]

take a propital with ya

[worldly cosmos]

yo peeps

who should I pick for Chemical part 4

Therapist/skier/prapor?

[swift trench]

I chose therapist, the other two had easier buybacks at the time, however look at the prices of the things she wants if you were to choose skier, it might be cheaper to choose him. And straight up don't choose prapor reward is shit

[worldly cosmos]

how much is the payout for prapor?

[swift trench]

The loyalty buy back? A bunch of grenades

[worldly cosmos]

have to be found in raid?

[swift trench]

Don't think so, no.

[worldly cosmos]

good imma just buy em and give me to that bitch ass, I know Skier wants money right? A mil?

[swift trench]

Yeah, 1m. Therapist wants keys I'm pretty sure

[worldly cosmos]

i cdid therapist casue of that delicious med case

the helmet is meh for me from skier. It's not a very good helmet right?

[robust hare]

Skier is most value, since he has follow up quest.

also, The keys and M67's are dirt cheap.

[worldly cosmos]

omfg i chose therapist nooooh

[worldly cosmos]

what's the quest.. did I mess up?

[hasty frost]

LVL 30+ duo runs anywhere

hmu

[robust hare]

nothing special, just some xp for killing stuff in reserve

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

[worldly cosmos]

oh... i didn't 100% mess up lol

[robust hare]

2 exp fuel tanks and 9k xp is nice tho.

[worldly cosmos]

good. I have good rep with skier anyway. 0.93 LMFAO

eeh it's okay, wasn't a full fuck up

[shadow panther]

Yo where the fuck am i supposed to find an r1ass

[worldly cosmos]

only in raids or once you complete a peacekeeper mission

which gives you the opportunity to buy it at like loyalty level 4 smth like that

[shadow panther]

So i’m stuck on gunsmith 6 until rng gets me

[worldly cosmos]

yep, I'm also stuck on it

[shadow panther]

Guess i’ll go hunt airdrops on interchange

[worldly cosmos]

it's not THAT bad. You'll get it eventually in the game.

[twilit girder]

Anyone getting random crashes?

This last patch really f’ed it up for me

[shadow panther]

Yeah everyone is

[sly crystal]

same

[twilit girder]

Well shit

[worldly cosmos]

yo holodnik is the best container for food right?>

[sullen loom]

you're the only one crashing guys, i'm in game right now killing people

[lethal frigate]

nah i also crashed, but i think its everyone

[worldly cosmos]

i haven't crashed

[mighty falcon]

crashed

[lethal frigate]

really? check eft-chat1

everyone is kicking off

[cinder granite]

Are cheaters realy able to boot people off servers now just dc them Battle State fix your shit this is fucking bad

[shadow panther]

Again

[errant crane]

getting a lot of crash to desktop no errors

[honest swan]

ive crashed 2 times

[errant crane]

in a scav raid with no pmcs left

[shadow panther]

Rn trying to abuse my scav in between crashes

Gotta kill some crashed pmcs

[uneven rapids]

Seems like a servers issue i'd assume, no client side crash stacks though.

[cinder granite]

me and my buddy crashed at the same time its linked i think

[ashen folio]

@rain spoke @rain spoke

[slate garden]

i keep trying to reorganize my stash just so I don't have to come to terms with the fact that I hoard too much garbage

[frosty sky]

I have crashed out 3 times during scav raid

[worldly cosmos]

don't overdose on copium

[twilit girder]

Crashed 4 times in a single scav raid.

[cinder granite]

its a fuckin meme bru

[worldly cosmos]

dude i hate how scavs are starting to kill again

really dissapointing

[flint pine]

i crashed 4x during my PMC runs and my homie died to it because a fucking scav while reconnecting,but then it stopped for me and i exfilled, Anyone else still have this issue not about to waste gear and die cause servers

[ancient halo]

I love vicious scavs

[autumn turtle]

cool thanks

[native totem]

why was the game crashing?

[worldly cosmos]

because i said so lolz

[charred mango]

how many black keycards are there per restock?

[lethal idol]

should i use, or sell my 11SR key card? i want to make the most profit

[warm moss]

anyone I want to play with me I am new and have no clue what I'm doing?

[worldly cosmos]

good key if you like interchange and want the saferoom exfil. if not sell

[pure rapids]

my game is still crashing

[dry kernel]

hi guys what to do with secure container epsilon? do i just delete it?

from punisher 6

[haughty silo]

you can turn it in for like 700k+ xp for a quest at level 60

[lethal idol]

Is it high traffic

[jagged owl]

Yeah sorta, people like to camp it, just make sure you check under the ramp the escalator leading up to oli and the crate behind the ports pitty in there, ppl like to hide there

[potent torrent]

To add to yours, a nade chuck would do

[jagged owl]

Fair enuff, impacts work well ;)

[potent torrent]

One of the weakness campers have is nades

[jagged owl]

Also scavs like to spawn in the far crates under oli, they aren’t much trouble tho

[jagged owl]

Unless they use them against you as soon as you run in lmao, hasn’t happened to me yet tho

[potent torrent]

However it's best to get in and out before there is half the duration of the raid since last thing you need to be is swamped by endless hoards of pscavs

[tepid solstice]

camping is boring and they might just end up having no one show up or having it backfire so thats cool atleast

have to possibly waste a lot of their time

[potent torrent]

On the other hand, camping is only viable option if you know you will get boxed in

[tepid solstice]

yea but preemptively doing that only for a raid

not like strategically hiding or w/e

[potent torrent]

I don't encourage camping, but this game doesnt really discourage or encourage either parties

[tepid solstice]

i never care too much because you cant force others to play how you like anyway

[potent torrent]

You can just do whatever you want, just suck up to the consequences

[tepid solstice]

lmao i literally almost got killed by extract camper on interchange on my scav just now that was weird coincidence

[ashen folio]

ANYONE HAVE LABS ACESS CARD DM ME!!

[tepid solstice]

i just vendor them

[rigid sandal]

how many THICC ITEM CASE recharge in each cycle? (the moonshine one)

[dense timber]

is there another cheater wave? every single PMC that has killed me in the last 3 days has headshotted me nearly instantly

[bleak acorn]

Sounds like you have been having a harsh time

[dense timber]

yeah every death has been a headshot from nowhere, or people prefiring

[agile lynx]

Try more centralized servers (If NA)

Stay off coastal

[balmy spire]

can anyone get me a 60 round 545x39 magazine? i will pay you plenty i need it for a task and im low level so i dont have fleamarket pls help

[dense timber]

mostly on west, its absolutely ridiculous. i havent died to a PMC who hasnt instantly headshotted me in the last week

[low chasm]

all people do this wipe is hide

[agile lynx]

get a T-7

closest thing to wall hacks

[low chasm]

yeah lemme spend 17 mil

at this point im just a punching bag of loot for these gremlins on customs, although its good to know they're probably to shit and scared to ever run anything decent

what do i spend 300k on next and give away

[prime surge]

i need someone to help me buy something on the market ill pay 155,000 for the items and ill pay an extra 100k for the hassle

[still socket]

Ok

[livid portal]

Any good ways to survive longer than 5 minutes on customs? It seems like if I try to play it slow players run into me or kill me, and if I try to go fast I also get killed by players

[livid portal]

Do people really just camp big red the entire match?

[lapis topaz]

i had better luck learning shoreline

[livid portal]

Yeah, it seems like if you don't do the big red quests early in wipe it's just a pain

[lapis topaz]

do u need help with the quest

[livid portal]

help would be good

[lapis topaz]

what quest are you on?

[livid portal]

I know what to do and have done the quest last wipe

the BP depot and Mechanic's Farming part 3. Only have a tarcone key

It just seems like a lot more people are camping big red / scouring that entire side of the map today

[lapis topaz]

My friend finally got on but if you add me on discord I can do some runs tomorrow if you're still on the quest

[livid portal]

Sounds good! From tommorow until the end of the week I'm busy so I'll see if I can squeeze it in today and if not I'll have to try again this weekend

[glass root]

Would anyone buy black keycard for 15 gpus?

[candid shuttle]

time 2 exit camp can i get an amen

[covert marten]

what do i need to not be tagged and cursed

[bleak acorn]

Nyet

[dapper marlin]

Not be a hatchet or pistol runner, thats pretty much it

[robust hare]

What are you doing in customs?

It's either questing or PvP map really.

And for quests just go in with a glock + rig or sks/vepr-km

(unless you're chad pvp enjoyer and quests are a side-thing for you).

[oak moon]

I kill cultists

[robust hare]

ears + rig + glock seems to be enough to not get tagged, maybe ears + glock would be enough.

[oak moon]

Really good loot, gotten 1 taiga so far, (7 mil) 5 customs marked keys (3 mil each) 2 yellow keycards, 6 slicks 5 hexgrids

[robust hare]

Honestly for even more budget, you can get like a grach or m1911 or whatever is dirt cheap

[oak moon]

And a ammo case of 762 bp and somehow 2 gpus on them

[robust hare]

Just with glock + big stick I can sometimes head,eyes a PMC who stumbles onto me.

[dapper marlin]

Armor or a rig yes, but generally they still gonna hunt you

[robust hare]

Not my experience.

it's very noticeable if you go in naked

[dapper marlin]

First couple days of wipe i even got tagged as a shotgun with a rig

Anyways, generally if you arent naked hatchling or pistol runner you should be fine

[amber agate]

willing to pay a lot for the key for the exorcist challenge DM me please, its "unkown" and you find it in the bushes next to roadblock on customs

[royal night]

First trading is not allowed, second that key is easy asf just get it yourself

[oak moon]

He can't get it

[amber agate]

everytime i get there its gone

[oak moon]

Im the customs guy that always drops it in the bush so its hard to find

[amber agate]

im like 4 attempts in and cant get it lmao

[oak moon]

It was me, every time.

[royal night]

Just gotta get lucky and spawn ON it

[oak moon]

I pop a sj6 just to run there and hide it.

[royal night]

If you want just go naked and run to it, when you get there stick it up your butt. You don’t need it fir anyways

[full garnet]

i've been seeing this alot, what yall mean by tagged

[robust hare]

if you go in naked, scavs will aggro you from further / across the map or something.

[full garnet]

that's a thing? nice lol

[robust hare]

might not work if you're grouped up, since people were abusing it in factory to pull all scavs to kill rooms.

[ruby mauve]

what is the max level for hideout management and crafting?

[full garnet]

51

[oak moon]

Damn

Im hideout level 11, max endurance and str tho

Ive had fuel running constsntöy and doing crafts

[lament creek]

i just got hillside house key on scav, u think it will go barter to dorm marked key?

[ruby mauve]

isnt it so you have to be doing different crafts?

[oak moon]

I can trade u a marked for it

None of my keys are fir tho so gotta be ingame trade

[astral crest]

Did they nerf Star Slugs?

[robust hare]

no, more crafts.

[robust hare]

are you doing long crafts or short ones. You want short ones (according to wiki), since it's 0.4 point per craft.

[full garnet]

short ones while actively playing, long ones when you sleep

and even if you're losing a bit of money EVERY STATION SHOULD BE CRAFTING. Elite lvl'd hideout management/crafting is sick af late wipe

[robust hare]

I mean, for maximum efficiency, you'd take micro naps and do short crafts while you sleep too.

[full garnet]

"What's your sleep schedule?"
Depends on what i'm crafting

[pastel trout]

It seems like backend errors are back

[inland lynx]

yesterday was quirky

[tawny forge]

for 4 days straight ive been trying to make my scav case in my hideout everytime i click on it to build it i get items moving error and kicked out and it doesnt start building the case anyone have this issue??

[jaunty igloo]

I had this issue, The game chose my full scav junk box case instead of the empity 1

basically just empty your scav junk box and then select it

[tawny forge]

bruh for real..... @jaunty igloo i have 4 total and 3 are full lmfao

[runic zephyr]

I know why

[jaunty igloo]

I had 1 empty and another 1 full… it still chose the full 1

[tawny forge]

@runic zephyr do u wanna share orrrr???

[runic zephyr]

You need to give me the stuff

[tawny forge]

@runic zephyr good one dumbasss

[runic zephyr]

So are you giving me the shit?

[tawny forge]

@jaunty igloo i randomly pick one of the boxes and threw everything in the one i bought and i got lucky it took that one thanks for the help brother

[tawny forge]

get better at the game trash can

[runic zephyr]

I am pretty good

[tawny forge]

@runic zephyr doubtful ur commenting on here with dumb shit i highly doubt it lmfao

@runic zephyr creeping around on 1 knee praying someone runs into you doesnt mean ur good have a good one bud

[runic zephyr]

Aim wise I’m pretty good, game sense why not so much

[runic zephyr]

Now will you give me the stuff ?

I deserve it

[pastel trout]

dude is legit raging because someone asked for his items kekekekekekek

[jaunty igloo]

[sonic kindle]

anyone else absolutely hate that one reserve spawn where pmc's can spawn left and right and glukhar in front 😄

[heavy smelt]

[wicked marsh]

do you lose scav rep for killing gluhar/raiders?

[ashen folio]

yes, alot

[lime path]

Any1 have a eletric motor i can buy?

[robust hornet]

Anyone here running the game on hdd?

[dapper oasis]

Yeah

[robust hornet]

Are loading screens long?

[robust hornet]

How much time does it take to load in a match or smth

[dapper oasis]

It mostly depends on matching

Actual loading takes like 1 or 2 minutes

[robust hornet]

So you dont encounter any annoying long loading screens, yes?

[haughty fiber]

Anyone wanna help a bot learn some extraction points ???

[dapper oasis]

No

Sorry for such a fast response

[low marsh]

Right as mechanic restock happened i just happened to fucking SOMEHOW click off flea, and lost the black card barter

[median crescent]

Is there a channel where one can post videos that feel Tarkov-esque but I do not think are directly connected to Tarkov? Saw a Youtube today, and some of his vids give me Tarkov vibes.

[dapper oasis]

Keep them for quests

[wooden idol]

3 people ran up on me, different times, third guy says lets take pmc and scav extract, i go to loot body, different player scav walks up to me and blasts me in the noggin

nice

[jaunty vine]

We have a merin car key, now wondering if we should run it
Both level 20 and not that great at pvp, any ideas?

[mighty oar]

MONEY

[jaunty vine]

ah yes

so sell it? xd

[dapper oasis]

You don't even need to live for merin to be worth it

It's all items that are worth lots to therapist

[mighty oar]

[jaunty vine]

[mighty oar]

Getting rid of Merin is a mistake

[dapper oasis]

Just go with an empty secure container @jaunty vine

[oblique gate]

how do you tag voip channels when looking for a group?

[sick gorge]

I got non fir violet if anyone wants to trade

[potent pawn]

does anyone know how to fix where i have money and items but the traders wont show that i have money or items

i restared my game and my pc and it is still like that

[silk totem]

anyone else still get killed by other scavs on interchange?

[raven karma]

where do i do LFG?

[dawn garnet]

Okay so how the hell does the thicc items case get sold out within the damn second it gets reset? I was there refreshing and hit buy the moment it reset and kept trying but sold out. I do not understand how this is a thing.

[lilac copper]

Finally got epsilon and have been saving my labs cards all wipe, tips for my first time at labs?

[last sapphire]

Flea market refreshes first, just have to get lucky

I was on flea, now I have absolutely no space in my stash from buying all the stupid liquor LOL i'm now stuck waiting over an hour and a half to do anything. Got tarkov'd without even being in raid I guess

are you level 35?>

[woven spear]

34

that explains it then

[median crescent]

... That feeling when you kill two Scavs, thinking they were PMCs... and it turned out they were traitors after all, and you can feel good about yourself.

[ashen folio]

What’s a “meme gun”. Is that just to describe a load out that’s not meta, but just to fuck around and have fun?

[woven spear]

yup

[ashen folio]

[median crescent]

Like, I like going out with a double barrel.

And the leather cap. I would hunt pheasants, if those existed.

[arctic kelp]

Kedr-B. Really good, cheap, and funny as hell to wipe big guys with SP7. If you’re not solo, Klin for the firerate.

Also, Ash12. Super expensive and requires grenadier to be finished to be viable but it hits like a truck

Honorable mention to revolver shotty

[ancient halo]

I bring KedrB with PBM on my sniper runs, good for a couple kills, just need to shoot face

[fallow badge]

Have they fixed solar yet?

[acoustic lake]

do i lose scav karma if i kill a boss?

[ancient halo]

yep

[acoustic lake]

ah so it didn't change :/

[ancient halo]

as a scav, not as a player

[gray fern]

Every couple hundred hours of playing this game, i move from "i just suck" to "wtf everyone is cheating", i thought after 1k hours i can tell better whats fishy but i still have no clue if im running into any cheaters at all. Could be 0 cheaters, could be cheaters every game, i feel like i couldnt even tell. Anyone feel me, replaysystem when...

Well past 1k hours and this game still makes me question my sanity...

[vagrant heron]

Well when Tarkov was in it's primitive years it was fairly hard to tell who was cheating and who wasn't, but cheaters nowadays don't hold back at all, they destroy everybody in the lobby with teleporting bullets and snag loot from 900 meters while flying around the map

[kindred inlet]

anyone got a .338

[acoustic lake]

that moment when y o scav wears a better gear than you

[gray fern]

I mean yea but "normal" cheaters probably still exist right, i wonder how many

[vagrant heron]

If you really want to familiarize yourself with cheaters (and don't care about losing a lot of good helmets) go to factory and run a tier 4 or 5 face shield, if they're cheating they're gonna dink you right in the face shield like 8-9 times before you actually die

[vagrant heron]

If you check #videos that's a prime example of what a lowkey cheater looks like, even though it's blatant

And the only reason it's blatant, is because he has a great face shield on factory, but if that same guy were on woods for example, you'd never be able to tell, and you'd think he is just a great player

[cerulean smelt]

what does the pipe grip wrench use for?

[acoustic lake]

need it t ocraft a booze generator

[cerulean smelt]

thanks

[rich thistle]

i can see what theyre thinking

loot pinata pscavs galore

[ancient halo]

parasites complaining about parasites

[strong notch]

if you're gonna extract camp you might as well go after pmc

they took my 1m and shus how will i go on

[hushed tapir]

finally sold my gpu to therapist after I kept forgetting lol

new to the game so I got help from my friend and they told me to sell to therapist, I still suck even tho im lvl 16 lol

[rocky python]

Was that gpu found in raid? or did you die with it in your container

@hushed tapir

[reef tundra]

BSG! Fix the fucking spawns on Reserve! I shouldn't be legged right off my spawn!

[stark bloom]

I thought they were fixed last wipe then this wipe I got clapped

[reef tundra]

yea. it's awful. I spawn in a building and instantly run out and get legged immediately.

[stark bloom]

Then be careful running out

[rocky python]

@reef tundra We just spawned at East Bunkers and immediately got laser beamed by Gluhar. Not even 10 seconds after spawning

[indigo copper]

any swedish scav that just got killed at an airdrop on reserve here?

[wary trail]

When do you unlock the money case?

[carmine tree]

where can i up grade my standard account to a better one

[wide flax]

Therapist 4 i think

[small tide]

what grenade does damage AND has a blind effect?

[hushed tapir]

found in raid I escaped cuz i think its good

[small tide]

if you thought it was bad would u have straight up died?

[hushed tapir]

no

i meant like I left earlier than i shouldve

[rocky python]

@hushed tapir Then your friend is an idiot for telling you to sell it to Therapist. They sell for almost 600k on the flea

[pulsar river]

Escapefromtarkov.com on the device you have tarkov downloaded on

[south stone]

Hello #eft-chat-2 , My name is chikeynuggiesauce and I think it's important to let it out every once in a while. I am bad at tarkov and that's okay. I will not have the best survival rating. I will not have the most money. I will probably delete things I do not intent on deleting from my stash. I will have fun. Thank you.
Does anyone else wish to say anything?

[jagged owl]

My survival rate is 56%, that is all

[wanton elm]

heya, anyone have any info on the Solar Power bug? i have it ready to install but im hearing about a bug that instead of decreasing, massively increase fuel consumption

[lethal apex]

i wouldnt, i metioned that i upgraded solar and everyone was like "uh oh..."

[wheat pebble]

Hey i just went to shoreline and planned my escape to be light house i new i needed to be a scav and i was but i wasn't able to extract

ok now give all labs card buy for 220k a pop

[placid horizon]

so uh, I've heard rumors of a 0 damage DB bug thing?

[ruby mauve]

wow, when do do a run trough stuff looses fir status, thats dumb

[placid horizon]

like... multiple wipes ago

its meant to stop people spawning in, finding the 1 loot item they need, and running to extract in the first 7 minutes

[ruby mauve]

well still, you found the item in raid and made it out

[placid horizon]

it doesn't matter. they want it balanced their way, you lose whatever you got. kill something next time is the only advice I can give, or just survive 7 minutes

if its Factory, you have to get a kill, and loot them

not checking any bodies after a kill can actually get you a run through

[pale shuttle]

@ashen folio
If you have video evidence please send it to #discord-mod-mail

[placid horizon]

calling it now, they probably don't because they didn't want Geforce eating ram during raid

[pale blade]

Reminder not to go into another raid boys. Maintenance in 20 min

Actually, just go anyway, you guys will die in like 5 minutes

[gentle thistle]

It auto extracts you though, dummy. Don’t know how you figure that it’d just kill you when timer hits zero

*only when they shut servers down for Maintenenance

[pale blade]

That must be improved then. Every server outage I've ever experienced just throws your gear into the void, or defaults you to whatever you had before the raid, erasing your progress.

[gentle thistle]

I’ve usually just been extracted with whatever I got

[thick violet]

Fence quest is bugged.... but only for some. My two mates could actually do it. I cannot however hand in anything....

yep, looks like Hexidecimal

[thick violet]

Has anybody been able to hand in the dogtags?
And if so. Were they found in raid? Or were they sitting in your docs case all the time?

[dreamy dew]

What does that say in announcements lol

[rich prairie]

#eft-chat message ?

[ashen folio]

i finished fence quest

[rich prairie]

what's it take?

[autumn delta]

have you tried to submit them from the trader>tasks instead of character>tasks ?

[thick violet]

As far as Ive been told they need to be found in raid

[autumn delta]

I use to carry my dogtags with me all the time, as soon as you end a raid it counts toward the 7 found in raid but it doesnt have to be found in raid when you turn them in

[ashen folio]

Dog tags whiskey and I think also gpu

All found in raid ofc

[scenic nebula]

i have to kill 7 PMCs with an AK for mine

[vivid spindle]

give me a random gun to run on woods and ill try to kill shturman w it

i will give u a bayonet

wht the hey gib server list back

[hollow totem]

What 260 ping

[thick violet]

Well .... I cannot, at all, hand in my "not found in raid" ones ... and I fucking hate it....

[autumn delta]

Thats weird ;/

i would would contact the real game supportin that case

[hardy wraith]

Feels like scavs became even more clearvoiant

[thick violet]

Still stupid that they have to be found in raid..... Didnt think about the people who care about Stash management and always carry their Dogtag Case .....

[rugged hemlock]

We’re do u even get the quests for event I have none

[sacred vessel]

i got a coded quest from fence...need to turn do 7 something 😄 any ideas?

[ashen folio]

wait. theres a sofia server

[rugged hemlock]

i got no quests why ?

because you dont have negative fence karma

whats that new note thing ?

what do i do with unknown error it gave me an option to copy it

[thorn sphinx]

bruh I tried to sell a mosin twice getting backend error, third time misclicked and disassembeld, tried to rebuild it and it just disappered

[snow atlas]

haha

[scenic nebula]

just stay off the game until they fix it

[wanton gorge]

bruv

[lean trellis]

I didn't get about 60k XP for two quests because of backend errors, but the reward came. Is there a chance that the XP will come back?

[ashen folio]

holy fucking shit this lag lmao

[small kiln]

backend go brazy

[ashen folio]

i went into a factory raid and not a single other pmc spawned

[small kiln]

lmao

[final tusk]

should I not bother logging in?

[subtle fossil]

I'd wait till this stuff is fixed

[sly ether]

Yeah, i would wait. I can not do anything in the stash without an error message. I did manage to open a scav case run and see that I had a key card but could not examine it in time.

[junior dagger]

Oof Moonshine Stash case reward just vanished due to backend error. FeelsBadMan

[subtle fossil]

Just hold off doing anything until bsg announces it's fixed. Going in will most likely only make it harder for em to fix it

[hushed tapir]

bruh wtf

[vocal lantern]

are the bosses supposed to shoot scavs who have friendly rep and havent shot anything yet?

[ashen folio]

At the errors fixed?

[oblique bear]

i cant buy tarkov EOD

[blazing vale]

Does anyone know the translation for the letter

[tender stone]

i made a ak with some parts that i had but its actually good

it looks like an eft cursed guns video but its cracked

[velvet hawk]

Will they ever make the mp7 good?

irl it's a laser beam, in this game you can't hit the broad side of a barn

[ashen folio]

yes because full auto gun op

[velvet hawk]

nope

[lilac garnet]

servers dead for you guys too ?

[pseudo zinc]

What tf is this paper with shit written on it in announcements

[dapper oasis]

If was really good before the recoil changes

[velvet hawk]

It was always kinda ass compared to other smgs because the second shot recoil was stooooopid. In reality it should be one of the best SMGs in the game

But with the recoil changes basically all the SMGs suck other than the ump

DMR is the meta I guess

[lapis topaz]

best way to kill rogues? should I push them in the building or wait

and try to snipe them from a distance on the roof

[rough cape]

snipe roof, then slow peak/snipe them from back of building, behind blue/green concrete fence

[covert marten]

finally found a faceshield for my exfil helm woo

[waxen mason]

[sacred vessel]

mp7 is broken af/as in OP as is.... no need to make it a lazer

[velvet hawk]

if the mp7 was op, people would use it (they don't)

[lapis wasp]

Was there a new update

[waxen mason]

[strong scarab]

How is it not already good. Lmao

It already is a laser beam, theirs literally nothing it needs

[velvet hawk]

[strong scarab]

I’m guessing you’re using the mp7 with no suppressor? Because the suppressed mp7 with a grip has zero recoil

[sacred vessel]

im using it, despite the 40 rounders costing arm and a leg. Even with FMJ SX im droping people ez. Ofc you wont use smg on a dmr range, but cqb, close and medium range even, it rips

[velvet hawk]

I've used the mp7 for the last 5 wipes and it's always been one of the worst choices out of any of the smgs/pdws. The only up-side is how busted the ammo is, but that's even less of a consideration this wipe since hardly anyone wears good armour now.

I still use it because it's cool as fuck but it's just not that great to control in this game (the first/second shot recoil is stupid as fuck)

[strong scarab]

Are you one of those people that doesn’t even try to compensate for recoil? You’re smoking something because the mp7 for the last 3 wipes has been one of the best smg’s in the game, and due to 6.3 and 7n31 ammo being near impossible to get, it’s even better

I don’t see your problem, the thing has zero recoil, amazing fire rate, amazing ammo, and a good magazine size

[velvet hawk]

Kinda weird assumptions you're making my dude, I'm strictly talking about how the gun controls regardless of ammo. Kinda like how the VSS/VAL is dogshit now because it's an uncontrollable mess even though the ammo is insane

[strong scarab]

It’s not uncontrollable? First shot goes up and then it steadies into a single point on your screen. The vss is beyond ass right now and is in a much worse state

[ruby mauve]

as a scav i did a voiceline to see whether the dude is a pmc or a scav, he was
imagine youre looting, hear cheeki breeki-..., check the nosie and die instantly

[velvet hawk]

I didn't say the mp7 was uncontrollable. Just that it's unrealistically bad at the start of your spray and feels bad

[strong scarab]

Please show me a clip of the “uncontrollable recoil”

[strong scarab]

First shot jumps and then steadies, that hasn’t changed ever since

Every other smg has initial recoil on first shots

[velvet hawk]

Have you ever paid attention to how high the initial recoil kicks?

It's at least twice as bad compared to other smgs

[strong scarab]

COMPENSATE FOR RECOIL -_-

[velvet hawk]

You're dense

Mp7 ammo is easy to get, the gun is cheap, if it was really that good people would use it, no?

[strong scarab]

You can pull down on the mouse to mitigate the initial recoil to begin with, and it’s probably the best smg right now alongside the .45 vector due to ammo availability

[sacred vessel]

i have 0 issue with mp7 recoil, even the initial kick

[strong scarab]

^ this guy

[velvet hawk]

I'm just saying is disproportionately bad

[strong scarab]

People are using it, it’s literally one of the most used guns right now

[velvet hawk]

Weird, I've killed like 300 pmcs and not seen a single person using it

[strong scarab]

I see them all the time. The sr-25 and mp7 are the meta guns right now for mid wipe

[sacred vessel]

40 rounders are like 40k a pop on flea i think + its easy to steal the gun 😂 and people prefer AR's to Smg's.... so they go on 7.62 PS/BP or 5.45 or 5.56.... a lot of people ignore smgs entirely.

[velvet hawk]

That'd be true if UMPs weren't everywhere

[strong scarab]

The ump is cheap and the ammo is good, that’s why they use it

[sacred vessel]

i rarely see someone using UMP tbh... :)

[strong scarab]

The mp7 easily beats the ump, it’s just that most people still prefer to budget run kits

[sacred vessel]

depends on server/playerbase i guess

[velvet hawk]

the mp7 isn't even expensive if you use 30 round mags

[strong scarab]

The ump is literal Pennie’s to get.

[sacred vessel]

just on my latest youtube killcomp also, im using mp7 to shred the camper, then another chad with slick/exfill down on road by the gas station on shoreline, on a quite some distance.... he had a sks with valday, didnt even braze me.

[velvet hawk]

the mp7a1 is 40k, 5k more than a ump 🤔

[sacred vessel]

mp7 is cheap to run

with 30 rounders and fmj sx that is,

[velvet hawk]

I really haven't seen any pmcs with mp7s for a long time

[sacred vessel]

btw the recoil animation sometimes looks like there is more recoil then it realy is

[strong scarab]

You’re the dense one to believe everyone has the trader levels to use the mp7

The mp7 also requires a high enough trader level to get the good enough ammo and the suppressor

[celest tulip]

silencer is 60k though 😦

[velvet hawk]

Well the ump suppressor is also ~45-50k

So you're paying 15-20k more for an mp7

[strong scarab]

Ump suppressor is trader level 2, mp7 is trader level 4

[velvet hawk]

There's a thing called the flea market

And these are the same price if not cheaper on the flea

[strong scarab]

-_-, the thing is 100k on flee dude

“They’re the same price!!!!”

[velvet hawk]

"100k"

They were 80-85k last time I checked, regardless, if they're so much better than the UMP you'd at least see one every now and then 🙂

[strong scarab]

100k is much more than the standard price, and not to mention that the mags require level 3 traders and level 4 for the good ones. Good ammo requires level 3 and 4 traders

The reason you don’t see as many of them is because less people have the ability to run them. Do you know how difficult mechanic 3/4 is to get compared to pk 3?

[velvet hawk]

I killed a level 45 yesterday who had a fast mt, trooper and a budget ump

even people with these traders aren't using the mp7

[strong scarab]

“I killed a guy with a ump so that represents the whole population”- that’s what I hear

[velvet hawk]

It's just an example that I see fuck all people, even high levels, running the mp7

[strong scarab]

Using a single guy does not represent the community -_-

[sacred vessel]

i killed a few people with pistols on factory... i think pistols are the new META 100%

high level ones

[velvet hawk]

I've killed plenty of level 40+ people and haven't seen a single mp7, tons of umps tho

[sacred vessel]

isk, maybe people run them if they find them. UMP spawns are higher

[velvet hawk]

And unless you've got actual statistics you also can't say "it's one of the most popular guns" so you're being a hypocrite my dude

[strong scarab]

I rarely see a level 40+ guy use a ump. Most the guys I kill are using sr-25’s and scars

[velvet hawk]

strange how we encounter completely different loadouts, half the people I kill are using trash loadouts

[sacred vessel]

scars are everywhere this wipe yeah

[strong scarab]

Do you have some statistics that show that the mp7 isn’t used? Sounds like you’re trying to tell me something yet you also refuse to follow that rule of thinking

[sacred vessel]

maybe battlestste implemented skiled based matching 😂😂😂

[velvet hawk]

I'm just saying we're all spouting anecdotes with no evidence

[strong scarab]

Sounds really hypocritical to get mad at me not having proof and then stating something without proof

[velvet hawk]

I'm not mad, you're literally allcaps at times so chill out lmao

[strong scarab]

All caps? Like once?

[sacred vessel]

servers match people with good loadouts, and people with trash loadouts

[velvet hawk]

Once is enough buddy

[sacred vessel]

come on chill guys... this is a safezone

[velvet hawk]

I wish because then I'd fight people who aren't straight up new to the game and I wouldn't feel bad anymore

[strong scarab]

Okay ‘buddy’, doesn’t change the fact that neither of us have anything but experience to back up our opinions. Also, it’s literally objective that the mp7 has zero recoil

It’s been like this for 3 wipes, it didn’t even get a recoil nerf like the vss

[velvet hawk]

All guns got a recoil nerf

[strong scarab]

Mostly 5.56 and 9x39 related. The other recoil changes are null

[velvet hawk]

High ROF guns got hit the most too

[strong scarab]

Mp7 was barely even touched and it still remains at zero recoil- I’ve used it 🙂

[velvet hawk]

They didn't individually nerf guns in 12.12, they made a blanket change on camera recoil and other variables

[sacred vessel]

be as it is... my prefered guns :
mk47
sr-25
p90
mp7
Rpk
scar-L
ap20 shotties

[strong scarab]

Yep, all of these are meta rn

[sacred vessel]

also one of the hidden gems... the vepr.... with 366 ap

[strong scarab]

Level 4 armor is all I see 99% of the time so yeah, .366 slaps

[sacred vessel]

366 devastates, i love how cheap these wre to run, and they slap

[velvet hawk]

g28, ump, ultima with flechette, ash-12 (fun factor), any bolty even tho they're kinda ass since the thorax buff a few wipes back

[sacred vessel]

they have realy bad drop at range but dmr is still efective

[strong scarab]

My personal favorite is the sr-25 and m1a

[velvet hawk]

I'd just much rather use the g28 because it's cool as fuck, just expensive

[sacred vessel]

ooof i forgot about the m1a... rsass stock and gooo

[strong scarab]

I found a single g28 and I don’t have the trader for it so I don’t think I’ll be using it. It’s basically the sa58 all over again

[velvet hawk]

sr-25 was an old favourite of mine though

[sacred vessel]

btw for fun gun.... the classic TOz with slugs .... i run labs with that 😂

toz is soooo underrated

[velvet hawk]

How's it the sa58? it has high ergo (even while suppressed) and low recoil

[strong scarab]

Sr-25 has been getting buffed for the last wipes instead o getting nerfed like 5.56

[sacred vessel]

sa-58 is realy good when built nicely but expensive to build

[strong scarab]

Expensive but good. Might as well use the g28 though

That or scar h

[velvet hawk]

I feel like DMRs have kinda overall sucked since the ergo and stamina nerfs but they seem really good this wipe because of the armour restrictions

[sacred vessel]

scars you can farm off rogues ez

[velvet hawk]

Scar-H is suprisingly expensive for what you get compared to the g28

shit ergo

[sacred vessel]

depends , you dont need to build the scar so expensive, and its still viable

[velvet hawk]

They'll probably nerf the g28 because the ergo:recoil ratio is hella good compared to basically every other dmr I think

I haven't looked at a good m1a or rsass tho

[sacred vessel]

rssas is hard to get, only trades on lvl 4 i think, and its baned off flea

so late wipe, yes, and m1a is realy nice now

[velvet hawk]

Yeah it's ridiculous imo

I think m1a loud -> g28 suppr -> m1a suppr

[sacred vessel]

im stuck at gunsmith part 6 bcs i cant get an rsass 😂

[strong scarab]

Pretty sure the rsass is the most accurate…I think it’s ugly though

[velvet hawk]

I can buy rsass' now so I might start using them

[strong scarab]

Sr-25 easily wins in looks and sound department

[velvet hawk]

Didn't they change the sound of the sr25? it is one of my favourite guns tho

[sacred vessel]

so while we sre here, any confirmed spawns for rsass so i move from that stinky quest?

[strong scarab]

Can’t tell. It’s really beefy sounding when using the loud combo and really quiet when suppressed

[velvet hawk]

Just farm 8 BEAR and USEC dogtags and do the tradeup, that's what I did

[sacred vessel]

yeah im lvl 34 and didnt unlock lvl 4 pracekeeper

[velvet hawk]

alternatively, get a friend or someone to drop you one lmao

I've found literally 1 RSASS in raid and it was from a guy who looted an airdrop

[velvet hawk]

The dogtag tradeup is level 3 peacekeeper

[sacred vessel]

i think its lvl 4 after wet job, no?

[velvet hawk]

8 BEAR and USEC level 15+ dogtags

[velvet hawk]

That's to buy it for dollars, the tradeup is level 3, no quest requirement

[sacred vessel]

oooh its 3

shit, thanks 😂 i didnt even check that since i was waiting to level 4

[velvet hawk]

That's how it usually works, tradeups are usually a level behind being able to buy the thing for cash

[blissful breach]

Anyone got any advice for the svds kills?

[velvet hawk]

use PS and shoot thoraxes, that's all I can really suggest. I never bother with that quest lmao

[sacred vessel]

also btw quest to kill 20 bear operstives on lighthouse, when there barely anyone is bear this wipe and ines that are- avoid lighthouse 😂

[velvet hawk]

There's barely anyone on lighthouse, they're just rats that scoop up a few spawns and leave

[sacred vessel]

naw, i find a lot of pvp on lighthouse

[velvet hawk]

The servers I play on must be just full of rats and budget gamers

[sacred vessel]

chalet and water plant are lit almost every raid

[velvet hawk]

I hate lighthouse, the spawns are so bad. I spawned on the beach, ran up to the rocks and immediately encountered 2 teams and a player scav????

[sacred vessel]

what servers u play on?

[blissful breach]

Yeah those svds are 100k plus, so I don't blame you. Also bear gang

[velvet hawk]

EU Auto

[sacred vessel]

dont run up.... go front, up to second hill, then you have 3 swuad spawns... one left from road, one front on cotages and 1 down left side/behind you near merrin

pick em off and go :)

[velvet hawk]

I like to go to the rocks and kill people heading to that broken building lmao

but that one time there was so many people within 2 minutes, including a scav player, like what the hell is that

[sacred vessel]

yeah people know thats camped.

[velvet hawk]

Why are scavs spawning within 2 minutes of the raid starting is what I want to know

[sacred vessel]

i usualy run on spawn to pick off near spawn, then depend if i am sea side or mountain, i check the top of sniper rock, 80% of time is easy kill 1-2 people that run up top optimisticaly 😂

[sacred vessel]

idk i didnt have that happen yet. 10 mins in tho yes

[velvet hawk]

it's fucked, I killed the PMCs and then a scav player killed me

if I kill 2 teams I should get at least a minute to myself if the raids only been going for 3 minutes lmao

[hardy wraith]

fucking scavs are on crack today

[sacred vessel]

one of bigest fights i had was my squad + 2 other squad + 4 man scav gang on that rocks above crashed heli. in first 15 mins... that was lit, we won pmcs but were hurt bad so scavs messed us up. they had xmass that day 😂

[velvet hawk]

that's how I justified losing my 1m loadout, "well at least the scav is happy" lmao

[sacred vessel]

i just run any loadout, i dont even think of its cost.... if i have hex/slick, i use it as i cant cash it in anyway...if i lose it, i tske next best thing i have.... i dont think i bought a single armour and gun this wipe 😂😂😂😂

most are found or stolen 😂

there is so much shit and rogues are so easy to farm, thats just free loadouts

[velvet hawk]

I don't like any of the damn red dots anymore, I want the old pk06 back

[sacred vessel]

i sent you a video on dm before

its what u use what is most similar to old pk06, its only reason i use it 😂

[velvet hawk]

SRS-02?

[sacred vessel]

yup

[velvet hawk]

yeah it's good it's just a bit FAT

[sacred vessel]

true, but has a nice , sharp dot

[pale shuttle]

SRS gang

That or Aimpoint

[velvet hawk]

t1?

[sacred vessel]

comp m4

[velvet hawk]

none of these compare to the old pk06 :(

[sacred vessel]

old pk was broken

no reddot has this sharp dot

[pale shuttle]

Well the old pk was unnaturally sharp

[sacred vessel]

i mean they have but

[velvet hawk]

imagine if the p1x42 was as stable as the old pk06

[sacred vessel]

tho its funny how poeple still build old meta builds, and use pk06... if u build a meta off web, at least check the date

[velvet hawk]

I just wish dots didn't sway so crazily in this game

[sacred vessel]

the times pk06 msrp'ed 80k-100k on flea 😂

and every shotty scav rocked it... and people wondered why buckshot scavs anialhate them on 150m 😂

[velvet hawk]

tarkov was more fun back then tbh, used to love killing raiders as a scav on reserve and getting their pp kedr mounts with the pk06 on

ez money

[sacred vessel]

yeah they drop trash gear now

but rogues are a realy good farm, you get bunch of expensive stachments

or if you loot the zone around heli, in water plant

[velvet hawk]

I hate rogues tho, because of this https://streamable.com/wtg3wv

[sacred vessel]

yeah, lol, dont do that

close up on them and cover, cqb is a lot easier, i think they do this at range to prevent just picking them off... if you wana take em out on range, you need to go night time

nighttime they pretent they dont know you're there 😂

[old walrus]

why do i keep geeeting "server connection lost"?

[velvet hawk]

Yeah it's just impossible to see them with NVGs cause the game's lighting is trash lmao

I was only doing that cause it was a scav run and I had to go eat

[sacred vessel]

i use FLIR

buying it in trade from jaeger, for flired saiga nerf gun,and use saiga with ap-20 separately :)

[vocal lantern]

new to game is the audio in this game any good?

[late lion]

Very good

[sacred vessel]

yes and no... as far as sound design goes, its amazing, but as well as that, its somewhat broken, especialy vertical audio on multiple stories/indoors

[pale shuttle]

It's a little bipolar as far as locational audio goes. Sometimes perfect but sometimes scuffed, even in the same location

[spiral hamlet]

Which one is better the dmr or the rfb

[pale shuttle]

Rfb gang

[small surge]

i have a question: as a positive scav karma player scav, how do scav bosses (including guards) work? sometimes they gun me down from legal distance jeffery epstein was supposed to be from a child and sometimes they are fine looting dead sanitar from toe ticking distance

[pale shuttle]

So Guards and Bosses only aggro depending on your distance from the boss themselves, your karma determines the chances they will aggro until 6.0, after which they won't aggro anymore. If the boss is dead and there guards are alive their aggro profiles switch to that of a normal Scav

[small surge]

grazie

[dry basin]

do I need less than -1 fence rep to get the quest, I'm on -0.96 and there's no quest for me

[flat stump]

Neither for me at -0.79

[willow tiger]

had to go below -1 to get the quest

i did atleast

[wooden idol]

is trading a dorms marked key for 9 gpu worth it

[indigo bay]

can anyone help me kill reshala?

[lusty crypt]

anyone stuck on RSASS for gunsmith? seems a waste to sell them for 80k

@sacred vessel

@steep grove

@sudden shore

I got 2 we can go into fac with and I'll gift em

[hearty sky]

I am still stuck on RSASS

Sucks that that thing is flea banned

[lusty crypt]

ok, that's one claimed. If we can get a second in need and, also if you both bring a buddy if you got one to pad out the factory raid so it's just us no aggro PMCs

[modern marlin]

what is the new event?

[hearty sky]

What server?

I really appreciate it bud

[lusty crypt]

I think I've been playing on NA East servers

[sudden shore]

im good man

[lusty crypt]

no worries, like I said much better to get someone past that barrier than just get another 80k esp now that I am getting bitcoins lol

[hearty sky]

Okay, just send me a message when you found another person. I am currently in a meeting but will be available in 10 minutes to play

[modern marlin]

Anyone want to do some of the combo extracts and juice our scav rep?

[sudden shore]

ty tho

[lusty crypt]

np

[sudden shore]

why not sell them?

[lusty crypt]

80k is nothing

[hearty sky]

because he is a wholesome man

[sudden shore]

rsass is 80k? since when

[lusty crypt]

compared to the bullshit of finding 8 mid level BEAR tags .. especially early wipe lol

[modern marlin]

i also keep every rsass i find and give it away, or just go into raid with them in factory and try to give them out

[lusty crypt]

selling to mechanic

[sudden shore]

u cant flea them?

[lusty crypt]

nope, one of the forbidden flea items

[hearty sky]

Nope they are flea banned

[sudden shore]

ooooo ok

[lusty crypt]

therefore I am doing community service 😛

[hearty sky]

It sucks been stuck on this for 3 weeks or something

[sudden shore]

i mean ill take it ig but i gotta pay you back w something

[lusty crypt]

if you got any buds, less chance of us getting REKT by a hacker/l337 PMC though

[modern marlin]

just do the barter

[lusty crypt]

PYWC, I'm a commie scrub at heart

[hearty sky]

I dont have a barter I think

[lusty crypt]

you still stuck on the quest @sudden shore?

[sudden shore]

yeah

[dapper oasis]

Peacekeeper 3

[lusty crypt]

alright, you free to join a game in 10ish?

[hearty sky]

Yeah I have peacekeeper 2

[dapper oasis]

🗿

[sudden shore]

yeah im down

u want an ash 12 or sumn

[lusty crypt]

cool, dm your tags and I'll add as friend IG, and we lobby

I will never use an ASH12, that gun is an alien to me but I won't say no

[hearty sky]

It doesnt allow me to go onto the australia server

[lusty crypt]

this aint a trade as that's not allowed. this is a gift

[modern marlin]

the full auto combat flak cannon? unless you have the PSB-12 its not worth using, however if you do it punches holes in tanks, it just doesn't quite have the range of a sword

[sudden shore]

oooo ok

[lusty crypt]

North America East? I mean @hearty sky not Australia lol

[sudden shore]

ye

[hearty sky]

Oh ok, could we go onto the new york server?

It doesnt allow me to select north america east as a whole or anything

[dapper oasis]

It's cracked asf

[sudden shore]

i wiped a 3 man w it on factory

[hearty sky]

Yeah its bassically a mini 50 cal so it makes sense

[sudden shore]

only died w it cuz i got flashed through a wall

[hearty sky]

Yeah flashbangs are wacky in tarkov

[lusty crypt]

I think if you just add me as friend and say all US it should be fine

[sudden shore]

is the are tube worth it

[hearty sky]

Oh ok whats your ign?

[sudden shore]

or do i sell

[full night]

from traders

[sudden shore]

no i found one in raid

@lusty crypt im looking for group big dawg

[lusty crypt]

ok, lemme restart and widen my servers
nvm I see you

mission accomplished 😎

[sudden shore]

have my children

[sly bison]

does anyone have rb-st i need to do it but dont have that type of money

[lusty crypt]

I've done a few runs where I go to ST room with 10m left and hope someone opened it
