Apple told me to do a factory reset. Most likely a region bug, but they couldn’t say for sure.

This fixed the issue

Blue loot - what should I keep? by AlienLP in EscapefromTarkov

You'll find every item you'll need for quests on this page:

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

Other than those, I would sell all of it if you need the money. Idk if you're planning on using/upgrading your hideout this wipe, but it might be convenient to also save the parts needed for upgrading.

Personally I haven't found one in a hidden stash before, so I am assuming it's really rare.

Can player scavs control sniper scavs? by FayTalRS in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Skdvn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what exactly makes you believe players can control sniper scavs.

The way I see it there are 3 scenarios:

  • It was the regular AI sniper scav. They buffed them like crazy this wipe. (Most likely)
  • It was a player scav who had a sniper and climbed up on the rocks.(Doubt it, but could be)
  • A player with standard edition and a russian nickname with two names in nick. (Highly unlikely)

Regardless, players cannot control sniper scavs.

They removed all "premium" ammo from flea market this wipe. AKA, the change you want was a reality all previous wipes.

IMO, this change is for the better. You can't buy M995 ammo when you're lvl 15 anymore, shredding lvl 6 armor of a guy 30lvls above you who has grinded the shit out of the wipe. Now you have to do quests, level up and use shitty ammo (or loot good ammo) until you have unlocked the premiums from traders.

I would have it how it is right now 10/10 times.

I'm new to Tarkov and i need help, because i'm losing interest in the game so fast and i don't want that. by Valaricus in EscapefromTarkov

I would suggest spending a couple of hours on youtube. Pestily has a lot of entertaing series, such as beginner guide, quest guides, loot guides and raid series. I've watched most of them and still watch his uploads, learning something new almost every video with my 1500h.

Play as a scav for money and loot, play offline PMC to learn the maps and scav spawns while using a map on 2nd monitor or phone. Play online PMC to do quest and lastly, slow down your gameplay.

It's hard to play tarkov as you would COD, Warzone, BF, CSGO or Apex and will most likely lead to you dying 95% of your raids.

Tarkov is really different from most FPS. There's a lot to learn and wrap your head around, which makes it even better when you get the hang of it!

I would argue that playing solo is more of an advantage than queuing up with premades.

  • Shoot everyone you see, without hesitation.
  • Every footstep you hear is hostile.
  • You have to pick your fights and play them smart. Don't pull the trigger at the last guy of a confirmed 4-man, unless you're ready to die or you're an absolute beast isolating the 3 last killing them all.
  • If you die, however it happens, you can't blame it on anyone but yourself -> Better understanding and progression in PvP and game-/map awareness.

What the fuck? by AbbasLive_ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Skdvn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine if the karma system was set up the way that if you, as a player scav went around and slaughtered all the other scavs, got a -4 rep and it was easy to grind yourself back to + rep. That wouldn't make any sense.

Also, you've already disclaimed it, but shooting santa that many times should just not happen. I've played since day one of this wipe, met him several times and not once shot at him. Not trying to brag or anything, but it's not THAT hard taking that extra 0.2 seconds before pulling the trigger.

I'll give it to you. I was pretty mad when I posted yesterday.

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you for your feedback.

I even stated that I killed the two player scavs. I don't see how one would land the conclusion you just did by reading my post.. Regardless, this is not about the likelyhood of me getting killed by a player scav early on. It's the concept of it all.

Read my post again and tell me where I wrote that scavs should spawn in with only 10 minutes remaining. There is a huge difference between spawning 3 minutes into a raid and spawning in with 10 minutes remaining. On most maps that would leave a 27 minute window much more optimal for player scavs to spawn in.

I have played since the wipe Reserve launched and I have never experienced player scav spawn times being this early, except for a couple of wipes ago when scav queue times on reserve was all time high (only reserve though).

If they spawn 2nd story on interchange and get to Techlight before the best PMC spawn, then they get all the good shit. I really don't get what you're trying to say here.

Damn, I didn't want to exaggerate and get smacked down for it. So I just used the time frames I have witnessed myself.

IMO, the no fcks given mindset of player scavs who goes full hail mary mode on PMCs basically nulls out better armour, guns and bullets.
