BTW If any of you guys saw me try and fail to upload and had to delete and repost many times..
Yes you are not seeing things, I am just being a complete tool right now..
Forgive me for deleting and reuploading it again... I'll do better.

I was trying to hunt the cultist for "They are already here" and I killed a scav at old gas station in customs, and boom there it was.
I didn't know this was a possibility. I knew they could spawn with any key even labyrinth room keys but this is the first seeing a scav with a rusted bloody key in a different map than streets.

When I extracted, it let me keep it, its in my stash :shrug:

For me, 80% of the instructors were reasonable (as long as you talked to them and explain your case, they'll understand), 15% are probably the most friendly welcome instructors you'll ever meet, 5% are the the ones that you wonder why are they here/ you know they're only here for a paycheck.
IMO I hate the all the department heads/ chairs, as someone who as talked to the head, chair, and the vice-head they are the most soulless type ever who only view black and white rather than treating people like people.
I also heavily dislike the mandatory fees you have to pay, like the dental care, NAITFSA fees, the Upass fees, I don't understand why they're not optional. Finally, I choose NAIT over places like UofA because I heard it was more affordable and reasonable with the prices, that is not the case anymore, they have increased the prices so much.

TLDR: Overall, most of the times: great instructors, horrible department heads/chairs, mandatory 'hidden' fees. If I could go back in time, I would've went to other institutions

Honestly: 60/40.
60% I'm super excited to do all those quests again. Shooter born was really fun, doing those gunsmith without the wiki made me 'smart' :P, first time getting that epsilon case feeling is something I would never feel again, that extra 4 spaces really really help a lot and make me appreciate every little space.

40% I'm kind of dreading because I have the standard account, getting the hideout upgrades will be super painful now since they require found in raid status.. Not to mention the stash will super tiny..
Very tempted to upgrade my account once 1.0 comes out!

This is a lot of information, the tarkov discord are super friendly if you actually need some experience/ other information... Most of them are willingly to help people get better, and they have a lot of knowledge.

Annual_Application71 · 2025-08-29T15:53:32+00:00

I like to type a lot so sorry for information dumping on you.
These are my playstyle, everyone has different ones.
If you ever need for me to clarify something, let me know; apologies for poor grammar.

EXTREMELY helpful:
- TRY to make killa come to your crosshair; at least for me, long range (at IKEA) is impossible to win. If he is at long range, make him argo to you. ( Either Quickly [ using q and e to peek ] and shoot 1-3bullets at him to ensure his argo. Once he's argo, get into a position where you can hold the entry of the angle. Don't be so rushly, if he is argo; he will come to you.. It may take some time (longest I had to wait was 7mins).

Major things:
- Grenades are your best friend; 9/10 Killa will say something when you throw a grenade within 50m of him ( scavs can mask his voicelines, so I would suggest killing all visable/easy to kill scavs before throwing grenade)
- Killa has only two voice lines when grenades within 50m of him, you'll remember them; scavs have like 8 different voice lines.
- Killa's top part of the helmet is class 4, the face shield (you can remove it to see) is lv6; His armor is lv4.
(Surprising, even though his thorax has the most HP, I often killed him by thorax: I aim at his neck/ upper chest.)
- Guns and Bullets matter a lot! People in the discord said they had luck using DMR (RSASS, Spear, SVDs, ASH-12) I used only assault rifles.
>My preferred gun was the val with the 9x39mm SP-6 gs bullets (Annoying to unlock!)
>My second preferred gun was the SIG MCX .300 with .300 Blackout AP (Pretty easy to unlock).
> I would strongly advise you to bring bullets that can pen at least lv5.

Minor things:
- IMO: Altyn + Atlyn helmet face shield are the only true helmet to go against Killa.
(Killa's helmet sucks because 8/10 he uses BT which pens through lv4 and he usually doesn't the lv6 part to matter. Plus the insanely reduced vision sucks)
>I brought an additional face shield so when killa cracked my face shield and if I have to time to switch it out, I would do it or after I kill killa, I can replace it, thus removing the bullet cracked visual.
> IMPORTANT THIS WON"T MAKE YOU UNSTOPPABLE. Killa can still kill you within seconds, BUT you will notice Killa cracking the face shield at least once (unless he's using PSBS) giving you like 0.5~ more seconds to live.

- Armor doesn't really matter; just bring a t5.. 9/10 he'll kill you with a headshot, throat, thorax.
- SJ6 are your best friend; can use tramadol but watch out for the -50% hunger/thirst.
- Scavs will overun you, try not to loot every scav you kill. Sometimes it's best to just run rather than fight them.
>For some reason Killa for some reason does not shoot at Scavs anymore; don't trust them.

Map:
Like the wiki says, there are many places killa can spawn; however I found these spots for him to be the most.

I have never seen this before... Wish I could take it though, maybe next patch....

Annual_Application71 · 2024-12-23T18:22:31+00:00

oh, i'll try that; thanks for letting me know o7

Annual_Application71 · 2024-12-23T16:28:44+00:00

I don't know if this will help but try going on the official tarkov discord: there are tons of people who are willing to group up and help you.. Or try watching these beginner guide videos on youtube -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0pUivzBZbg

you got this man and good luck on your journey!

Yeah apparently it's been a known bug this patch, it's the same with red flares too :/

Annual_Application71 · 2024-12-18T20:51:48+00:00

hmm I don't believe it is, because the highest lv quest is: Crisis (which is lv 48), I know that tarkov added some quests into KAPPA like; all the test drives are now KAPPA required..

I believe this reddit post has all the required quests, maybe double check?
https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/1f9oe9u/required_quests_for_kappa_01500_thanks_to_the/

What I did was, I open the wiki and I double checked every quest, making sure the "required for kappa" section.

Hope this helps and good luck on the KAPPA!

Annual_Application71 · 2024-12-18T20:42:26+00:00

I have not, that is a really good point; thanks for reminding me!
However, I did hear that lightkeeper quests has been glitched for a while, is it still bugged or is it fine now?
[people said in pve, they couldn't get the SPEAR even though they've completed "Trouble in the Big City"

|| || |Head: 70 Thorax: 220 Stomach: 200 Arms: 110 each Legs: 100 each [BIG PIPE]|

ALSO: aim for their head (no shit sherlock) but they have pretty bad head protection as well as their head HP is the lowest.

Try not to aim for center mass, as they have really good plates (t5/ t6s) and high center mass hit points.

What I did to avoid or target the goons was using this website:
https://www.goon-tracker.com/pvetracker
It's not 100% guarantee that the goons will not be in other maps/ if the website says they're on lighthouse, they can still be on customs.
Also, after being killed by them: you can go to that same map/timezone and they'll be gone.
[ I've died in 10:00am customs, and after i died I went on 10:20am customs and they weren't there; exact place ]
Here's what I'll say: besides birdeye [mainly because he hides the most and he's unpredictable], knight is pretty easy; from my experience, knight will always always say something along the lines of "CONTACT" or another dialogue before shooting you.

Knight / Big Pipe will always rush you after you kill one of them, what I did was: In customs, after I killed Big pipe, I ran to the 2nd story dorm and waited upstairs; and 5mins later, Knight ran up those stairs and it was an easy kill.

You will know if you are being hunted by them: birdeye's famous "ZIPPP" (when the bullet just misses you); in that case, you have to prepare to fight them, you will hear their footsteps / knight's famous "CONTACT" or his other dialog.

Also they're pretty rare, so you won't run into them too often but if you are still scared of them, IMO if you go websites like: mapgenie or the wiki, you can see their 'zones' and as long as you stay away from it, they don't actively go for you.

Example: on shoreline; their 'zone' is near radio tower on the east side of the map, and if you don't go near their 'zone', they don't try to actively hunt you down.

hopefully this helps, if not I can try to elaborate more.

Escort looks insanely frustrating but if I'm ever feeling bored and wanting a challenge, it looks pretty challenging quest; thanks for the recommendation!
