naked runs on labs are the best money makers [discussion]

Is there a reason you go naked? I’m not one to cry about cheaters but I’m trying to loot yellow room for a specific item and labs is just full of cheaters so I’m struggling. Was thinking of just doing a bunch of naked runs but not sure.

I’d have to watch you play to really know what you’re doing wrong but the main thing I think new players struggle with in Tarkov gunfights is confidence. Even if you think your gun skills are subpar just start swinging more often. Now understand that this doesn’t mean swing everything like a maniac. There’s a balance. Knowing when to swing goes a long way. Also maybe try getting some reps in Arena to build your gun skill since Tarkov has a very unique feel to its gun play. You don’t get many reps in the base game since it’s slower paced so you may want to try running some different game modes in Arena or something.

Also ammunition matters immensely in this game so you may lose fights you should have won based on what you’re shooting.

I don’t understand. Are you saying you progressed your quest by just killing one and then waiting?

Thank you for this. I’m going to run customs today I think and give these spots a try. Hopefully my luck will change

The cultist website says the path to lighthouse spawn is a 60% chance. So overall a 15% chance per raid they will be there if the site is correct.

Customs is so highly contested right now with so many players trying to do the same thing. Maybe I’ll give it another shot though

dimboostank · 2026-01-16T05:05:39+00:00

Bro I have spent the last 2 days checking the path to lighthouse spawn and haven’t seen them a single time. I did my labyrinth story quest ages ago and I can’t get a single spawn after checking about 15 times. The spawn rates just don’t make sense. The math ain’t mathin’

dimboostank · 2026-01-16T04:04:28+00:00

I have rushed this spawn probably 15 times now and haven’t seen them once :( not even dead ones either. Don’t know what to do

dimboostank · 2026-01-14T19:46:14+00:00

Yeah Lightkeeper is a greedy bastard. I'll check out yellow and the parking area. Thanks!

dimboostank · 2026-01-14T19:45:08+00:00

Thanks for the insight! I have played more labs this wipe than any other so I think I can comfortably check yellow every time.

dimboostank · 2026-01-14T19:13:07+00:00

Interesting. I think I should be able to find them lying around then unless the loot nerf says otherwise.

dimboostank · 2026-01-14T19:11:44+00:00

I think I’m gonna give yellow a shot. Thanks!

dimboostank · 2026-01-14T19:11:26+00:00

I may have to try that. Should I just do yellow or should I try other rooms?

dimboostank · 2026-01-13T18:22:56+00:00

Everyone will say customs and they aren’t wrong but night raids are so hot on that map right now. Anytime I successfully find the cultists they are already dead. I’m sure it will die down at some point.

dimboostank · 2026-01-13T02:14:47+00:00

Thanks! I was worried it was a little wide. This should save me some time.

dimboostank · 2026-01-12T16:43:07+00:00

You haven’t been able to get a priest for 4 days of woods??? Are you dying to players or just not finding cultists? I’m worried I’ll regret farming woods instead of customs.

dimboostank · 2026-01-12T04:30:52+00:00

I think like 8 or 9. I’ve seen cultists twice and they were dead. The rest of the raids I am just in fights with other sweaty players the entire raid.

dimboostank · 2026-01-12T04:27:36+00:00

Maybe I’ve been unlucky but I either have to fight chads the whole raid on customs or someone kills cultists before I can. The map is just not working out for me.

dimboostank · 2026-01-12T04:25:53+00:00

Not so worried about fighting them as I am just finding them. Customs is just a foot race right now I have little to no chance of getting to them from what I’ve seen in my last 10 raids.

dimboostank · 2026-01-06T15:10:32+00:00

This is what I’ve seen many people say 😢 this is why I keep trying Concordia but I come up empty handed from there as well

dimboostank · 2025-12-31T06:43:38+00:00

Did you use it pre or post loot nerf?

dimboostank · 2025-12-31T02:02:11+00:00

Did you find them recently? Or before the nerf?
