7:51 "You shouldn't be fighting any pmcs" Pity that they crawl out of the wood work once they hear gun shots, more so if you have to go to the dorms, resort or something.
Well you don't always HAVE to fight them...if you see a 4 man squad and you are a solo player with a shitty makarov you better wait for them to pass or go the opposite way. Regardless, even with gear disadvantage, you always have a chance to kill even the most geared player, but you need to be the one who has control over the fight.
Honestly, if you're going to recommend the AKM but suggest staying on semi-auto because 7.62 AKs are so hard to control for new players, why not just recommend the 7.62 Vepr? It's cheaper, uses the same ammo, and can be extremely effective. You'll still level your AR skill (and mastery for the entire AKM family), and playing on semi exclusively will help you learn to place your shots. I'm almost level 30 and still using it because it just feels great to use, is cheap, and you're pretty likely to get it back from insurance. If anything I'd even recommend it over the SKS if you want to use magazines rather than pocket ammo.
Vepyr is a BEAST! I am a "new" player and i dropped a Level 50 FULL GEAR guy, with nightvision, m1 50 mags etc. with a double tap in the head, he didn´t even know WHAT dropped him. He was a streamer, so i watched my kill afterwards in his videos and it was funny as hell, he was so mad... I got lucky that i stayed at the ONE spot right after i heard him... Was quite nice and i made like 500.000 Rubels just selling his stuff on the market and traders :) Vepyr is my weaopn of choice, i guess the correct 7.62 ammo is insane against armor.
No. As a new play the akm was one of my best friends. I also kept a it on full auto. Would tap fire for guys far away and then be able to hip fire and shred a guy up close. The vepyr will get you killed close range especially if your new .
@@joshwaterman5526 It all comes down to personal preference! I personally very rarely have an issue using semi auto close range (and this is my first patch). I find that most guns feel more controllable and accurate clicking as fast as possible on semi than spraying on full auto. To each their own! Tarkov is cool like that
josh waterman just the other day played on woods for the first time and spawned in as a scav with a vepr hunter. Had no clue where I was but I heard someone coming towards me. Luckily I had an ai scav that was near me that I used as a distraction, got the drop on the guy and let loose on him probably just 5m away. Except he had a teammate, so I ducked back around the corner, reloaded while he dealt with the scav, then let loose on him. Both were high level and had decent gear.
@@joshwaterman5526 Mostly because it is about the same RoF, but higher recoil because you can't get major reduction mods til way later. Handguard with a slot for a foregrip, but the one from Peacekeeper LL1 doesn't do enough. AKM, even from the Flea Market, always has more options, and a higher chance that you can just add loot to the gun (Foregrip, Light, 'most' sights w/e) because it's a bit more forgiving.
Tbf, as a new player, you're probably not going to get into those sorts of engagements anyway. At least that's how it's been for me as I just started playing only a week ago.
@@Vagabond671 i would strongly recommend keeping it on. You don't want to get the shot on a target then wonder why it wasn't a hit and maybe the game is bugged etc. Don't train bad habits :)
@@cookiesandcream8442 honestly haven't tested each gun so it wouldn't surprise me if it was a problem for some guns but not others. However if there is one thing tarkov has taught me is presume the worst case ever time and you'll minimise being tarkov'd
@4:40 thank you for that comment. I know since most people watching videos like this are new and feeling discouraged by dying so much, a simple comment like this makes the difference between leaving to play CoD and sticking around to learn Tarkov. These are some of my favorite beginner videos I've watched.
If I can add/confirm some tips too, for those interested. Balaclava is more effective at keeping you alive than a pacca most of the time. Save your Recharcable batteries for the ADAR trade. The ADAR is a very accurate and modifiable weapon. Mostly cheap to mod and if you play sneaky for a few raids you'll absolutely be able to make money to buy at least one more once you reach level 5 for the flea market. Save face masks (×3) early on for free pacca armor from Ragman. It's basically free armor or quick cash to sell it back to Ragman to level up the trader. Most importantly, use decent to good ammo! I cant tell you how many times I've won a gunfight because the PMC trying to kill me us using crap ammo where I'd have been dead wife they'd used better ammo. Hope this helps confirm and cement info for new players
I would actually say to use literally the best ammo. You can have the shittiest, low-ergo gun with the highest AP round and it'll be infinitely more effective than a kitted-out gun with lackluster ammo. And if you want to argue that top tier ammo is harder to afford for newer (level 5+) players, loading a mag mostly with PS or PP rounds, then topping each one off with 10-15 AP rounds like BS or BP is also viable since your first shots should be the ones that count the most. I would say to always make sure you have a little extra money before going into a raid so you can always splurge on good ammo and always insure everything just in case.
@@SavageSenzu Look at NoFoodAfterMidnight's ammo chart. In most cases, the best ammo is typically the one with the highest pen damage- OR a round with a good pen value to pen damage ratio. Otherwise, you have two options based on your play style. Aim for center mass and use high-pen rounds, or aim for the legs and use high flesh rounds. The latter is much easier said than done. In most cases, you'll find taking your time and tap firing for solid body shots or headshots way more rewarding than burst-firing or even spraying, especially with AKs, since they're typically the first guns you'll wind up using. For example, 7N39 is the highest pen value 5.45x39 round, however, BS, the second best pen value round, does more overall regular damage than 7N39. So even though 7N39 is technically a better round, its price doesn't justify it unless you're going fully geared to Interchange or Labs, as BS can do basically the same thing for every armor class below 6 (It can still go through class 6 armor, but 7N39 does have an easier time). Besides, people very rarely even go out with class 6 armor, as class 5 and even 4 can be more than enough with less movement penalties. Better ammo becomes more accessible as you level up your traders, so don't feel bad if you're not using the top armor pen ammo all the time, you'll definitely be able to kill scavs with the lower level pen rounds like PP for 5.45x39 or PST for 9mm respectively. If you want just a super quick breakdown of what to use, I can go over the most used weapon platforms. Okay, so: 5.45x39mm - PP or BT for budget, BS or 7N39 for high pen. 7.62x39mm - PS for budget, BP for high pen. 7.62x54R - 7N1 for budget, 7N37 for high pen. 9x19mm - PST or GT (Green Tracer) for budget, AP 6.3 for high pen. Those are the only calibers I would recommend using early on. I wouldn't worry about it until you're a decent level with high-level traders, but if you're curious about more expensive calibers, then: 5.56x45mm - M856A1 (It's a tracer round) for budget, and M995 for high pen. 9x39mm - SP6 for budget, BP for high pen. 7.62x51mm - M80 or M62 for budget, M61 for high pen. 4.6x30mm - Only really use AP SX honestly. 5.7x28mm - ss190 for budget, l191 (Tracer round) for high pen. And if you're goofy enough to use it, 12.7x55mm - ps12 for "budget", ps12b for high pen. Shotguns fall in a different category and are kinda weird and bad more often than not, so I'll just say, only use 12 gauge RIP rounds for high flesh, and AP 20 (slug) rounds for high pen. Hope this helps! Keep in mind, budget doesn't necessarily mean "way cheaper" and sometimes it's better to just go for the highest pen ammo, this is truer for more expensive guns usually.
The dogtag thing is level 8 and lower. Level 9 and up you're better off selling them to therapist, there are other trades for higher level tags aswell.
You don't even know how much these videos are helping me and telling me new things about this game as a new player, I'm level 6, stuck on some tasks, learning customs and trying to get better loot as i try to go in as a PMC but i don't know what loadouts to take, i usually go naked with a pistol but now i will give these guns a try. Thanks a lot my dude, it's really appreciated.
I started playing a few days ago, so far i'm having a ton of fun. I generally want to thank you for these videos towards new players they've helped me a lot. On a side note, holy shit the headphones made a massive difference
Second day.. only made it out once ... This game is hard. Lol at least until I get used it it.. I lost alot but I realized to just use scav until I build stuff up and use my main character for offline mode until everything comes together and such... Because I feel like I hit people a million times and they don't die ... Lol overall very fun game xD
Thanks so much for this. I just started playing EFT only a week ago (it's been kicking my ass thoroughly) and found your Beginners Guide video to be extremely helpful! And this has answered my questions about loadouts as well.
Also, I highly suggest you watch Krashed for his thought process on how he tackles engagements. Tarkov is pretty much a chess game disguised as a shooter. Geekseh provided a great foundation and watching him live will also help give you an idea on how to succeed in Tarkov!
I've been exclusively farming the ground level carpark on Interchange, both scav and pmc runs. I haven't dared venture into the centre proper, even if I spawn in the back rooms or near the isolated escalators. It's straight down into the carpark for me. As a scav, you won't find too many players down there, so you can easily farm the various weapon and grenade crates as well as often finding accessories, medical items and ammunition. A good scav run on the carpark can easily net you 50-100k in loot, let alone the gear you start with. That might not sound like a lot for more experienced players, but for new players who have yet to even unlock the flea market, that's big bucks. If you have the time or a nearby spawn as a scav, it's also worth hitting up the building next to the 3000R extract. The jackets often have keys and you're close enough to the south exit that you can hug the centre's wall and get out without a scuffle most times.
+Dylan Wight I really like your perspective. You are all about quantity. The juicy boys can go upstairs and fight over kiba. Here youa re eating like a king downstairs alone. Good on you buds.
@@geekseh It's safe. It might not be exciting, but I'd rather live to fight another day than get one-shotted in the back by a scav boss or some player I never noticed. Actually the carpark has a pretty interesting dynamic of its own. Lots of cover and concealment looking out over open sight lines. It's not hard to navigate safely and avoid fights, but it's also easy enough to get the drop on the scavs. They're pretty predictable down there.
On the AK platforms use the GP-25 rubber recoil pad. It gets your recoil down even further, while it only costs approximately 5000 Roubles. Lvl 1 Prapor sells it.
really apperciate the in depth builds at the end, been having trouble finding the right attachments and having no luck with the linked searches from the weapons / market.
On the front sights on the sks there is a thicker line on the bottom and a thinner line on the top, when you have the rear sights, you are aiming with the top, however without it, precision shots/longer range would require the aiming with the thicker line below the usual thinner front sight lines. CQC shouldn't matter so just remove rear for more screen space
Tbh I appreciate the work put into it, but I would add something: The rubber butt pad for 3k roubles is a great investment if you dont want to use a foregrip (or use both), and at lvl. 2 you can get the vpo-136, which is equivalent to the adar, but cheaper to mod with a recoil penalty tho but more damage.
maaan! Just went in with an SKS build, killed a JUICED lv65 off the bat as he was using his factory shortcut on customs, got his full kit, almost got to extract, ran into 3 player scavs, killed 2, but the 3rd pushed me on the reload. Was hella fun!!!
i just got into tarkov a little over a month ago, your SKS loadout worked great for me! hot take no headphones are better then GSSh's. Also on the latest update you can get an RFB and M80 rounds from Peacekeeper LV2 and they shred just about everything I run into, highly recommend the gun, easy to mod but no full auto
Thank you SO much for this video dude!!! I started tarkov about a week ago and the info you gave and the way you presented had helped in a huge way! No rags to riches story from me yet but over the past two days I’ve been making money faster than I’m loosing it which is big for me lmao You got yourself a new subscriber
honestly, the ADAR is the best rifle for beginners for your first geared runs with armor and helmet. At the beginning i struggled so hard with the Recoil in this game, and the Adar is the only rifle that has low recoil from the get go. 30 Round Magazine, precise and because of the low recoil you can spam it in close ranges when a scav jump scares you. And it is precise for long range shots if you try those. No need to mod it. A sight and a low profile MK12 gas block is all you might need. But the Standard sights are great too. At the beginning of the game you will die so many times that modding them is a waste of money.
7:46 With the exception of Skier's Quest of killing PMCs with a Pistol. Unlocks at lvl 8, but best to wait until ppl are a little further along and better at a map, or more comfortable with the game.
I am new to this game, only level 9, but it was so satisfying when i had the breakthrough of not dying everyraid and it being more of a 50/50. Also i had a ton of T-plugs and i just sold them all rather than trading, F.
For the ADAR build you don't need the low profile block. There is another one that has a mount for a front iron sight that is not only cheaper to buy doesn't have a buy limit per reset. Works fine with that foregrip and doesn't block field of view.
Just started playing the other day. My biggest issue is every game I've played as pmc I dont see anyone until like 10 minutes into a game when I get destroyed by 2 players geared to the teeth. I only see scavs when I play as a scav. Playing on customs
Thank you so much for all your work in these videos. I am only new to Tarkov and your videos have helped my game so much. Appreciate it and keep up the great work 🤙
If new, play factory and go scav. Try kill pmc’s or just loot the gear, it’s free stuff and I’ve gotten some mega items out (kiba key 1.4m) Learn gun play and how to fight, I started on customs and it’s a big map to learn.
I'm going to give this a go, I've been learning customs and agree. It's simple but large with a lot of scav spawns to try to remember and most of the extracts are really inconvenient to get to as a new player trying to just survive and get out with loot. It can be tricky picking out where you're being shot at from with all the cover at customs too which makes just surviving even trickier.
If only I could have watched this when I started. (It's been only 4 days but damn my choices were not cost effective). I found the ADAR by myself to be an amazing weapon, it SHREDDDSS ! Great video !
I have been watching alot of tarkov videos because I got tarkov 3 days ago and I got grounded for a month and I never got to play it so I'm sitting here watching all your tarkov videos
@@kykcreep4423 Alright thank you! Now I want to ask, am I looking for more armor pen basically? Let's say I have no budget for ammo I can buy anything and I want 5.56 ammo, would I just go for highest armor pen is that the meta for dealing with class 5?
@@BlootusWealth yeah it is but i would rlly spend the money on better bullets because it doesnt matter which weapon you have its just a matter of which bullets ignores the amor of the enemy
Hey first video I’ve ever watched from u and I love the editing during the weapon builds. Having the pics of the parts next to the gun are really helpful. Could u do more weapon build videos in the future? Extremely helpful. Thanks
Do not take the rear sight off the SKS, it will keep it aimed the same horizontally, but vertically you can aim at the head and hit someone in the chest, or go straight over them. It becomes very inconsistent.
Use the AK-74m over the AK-74N even without the traders you can get the AK-74M on the flea market around 21k rubles and it takes all the same attachments and ammo, and it also has slightly lower recoil. all for a cheaper price tag. Also if you want to buy an ADAR and don't have Level 2 traders and no Rec Batteries, you can just buy one off the flea market as well for only 15k rubles or less normally. Deals can really be made on the flea market if you look, so don't lose out on some seriously cheap but effective weapons.
I have a problem. I am a newbie at Tarkov, but I love it. I've had it for a couple years but only dabbled with it and barely played it because I've been soloing and it's rough as you know. Now though I'm really digging it, especially with all the great patches. I usually run as a Scav, and usually only a pistol and a vest as a PMC, but I'm starting to change that up now. I'm trying to get my brother and cousin into it, who love shooter looters and aren't into fast play FPS's anymore, basically because we aren't as good anymore as the youngins. They make jokes about having to smelt your bullets. Never having played it, they think it's boring and too complicated. I try to convey that they should think it more of a rpg or PvE game than PvP. Also, that the raids are timed and that you can get in and out of it quickly if you want. We often have conflicting schedules to play. Any suggestions on how I might convince a few people to at least try the game (I bought my brother a copy that's unused except for 5 minutes). Even one of them on for a bit, there's a large hurdle of a learning curve in the beginning. What do you guys love about the game, that maybe might convince someone to give it a go? Thanks!
Hey. Your dope. Awesome help. Only thing I’d ask is a bit more info on prices if possible 😬 like “this modded gun cost 100k after all the parts” and things. Just seems like an interesting point to consider. Thanks a ton man!
Man I am so tired of the SKS but I play my scav so much more often than my main and I've barley leveled. I feel like scavs are so much easier to e-vac because they come in late game.
Did it annoy anyone else how he said pst gzh, and gssh? Also for the ak build at the end, dont need the new stock just add a buttpad, instead of the sight mount buy either the dovetail sight from lvl 1 Prapor or use an okp-7 dovetail sight it's a common drop on saiga-12 shotguns (on scavs) and replace the default muzzle device :)
I only played a couple of days and want to say to other new plaers, to just play Scav for now. If you manage to survive and extract you get so much free guns, bags, rigs, armor, helmets etc etc for fre that you can either sell, hand in to Prapor (M 133 shotguns etc) or just keep an play with as your PMC. I first started to play only as my PMC anb I died all the time (mostly to AI Scavs) and lost all my start up gear and went broke. Play as a Svac on no other AI scav will shoot at you and most player scav wont as well. So play as Scav and build up a stash.
@19.53 No you dont need that rail. you can get a grip that is m-Lock ready. no need on extra expenses. or you could switch for a Daniel rail and put what ever on.
Nicolas Gonzalo in my opinion 5.56 isn’t really worth running until you can AT LEAST use M856a1 ammo, but I personally just use m995 or I don’t use a 556 weapon.
I'm with Smiles on this one, either go m995 or don't use the gun at all. I found the second best ammo in the 5.56 caliber (m856a1) is pretty trash even vs lvl4 helmets, so I guess it's not really worth running.
I’m still new (lvl 16 now) I mostly used AK74’s i picked up scavs and players I’ve killed or even found dead. I found out ammo is everything. Get you an AK 74 buy a cobra or a okp and buy BT ammo. BT was recently buffed and the price for BT Ammo.
I believe the devs have mentioned that they will be (or already have? IDK) made it so removing one of the iron sights (front or back) on a gun will decrease the accuracy of said gun, as doing this in real life would make it much more difficult to line up a shot.
To clarify this even more AMMO IS SO IMPORTANT!!!!!!!! I only use the best bullets even though they are expensive. When I use an SKS I use 7.62x39 PB and I can kill people that have forts and m4s. If you have something like tracers you wont kill anyone that has armor.
The first super intense fight I had gave me a nerdgasm. It felt like no other game could replicate how these fights feel. Trying to load my mags while my guy is breathing heavy from being shot in the chest. Just so awesome. I cant explain how nervous I was either. 🤣
Can these mods be bought from normal dealers, or do you need fleemarket access? if so, i woudln't call this beginner oriented because it takes a lot of time to get to level 10 when you can't pick and choose your mods.
Regardless, once you're out of money and the inventory is empty, the game turns to garbage unless you're exceptionally decent at shooters. Play a scav, survive 5 minutes, 20 minute cooldown. That's just a set up for pay to play later to skip that Q. The only way to survive if you're not good is to lay in a bush till there's less than 10 minutes left, and hope everyone already left.
And the PP. You could argue you don't need much recoil reduction in that but he took an RK-1. I'd sooner go rubber butt and SRVV for recoil and save on a cheaper grip like the RVG than go with a pricier grip like the RK-1.
I just played the game and watched this video. I tried SKS and while it performs quite well, it's pretty hard for me to aim with the stock sight. Is there any good sights for sks that I can get from lvl 1 traders?
So I just got the game. Took for ever to figure out how to even get it unpacked and be able to open. But I have played controller my whole life and 42yrs old now. What keybinds should i be setting up. Any links would be great
Veritas has an amazing video on that. Also come into my twitch chat and type !pedals. I use pedals to lean left and right cause I came from an Xbox background too
@@geekseh PEDALS for leaning? Holy shit, it's a complete madness and yet a brilliant idea at the same time. Fuck me, I want pedals now too. Shit, that's just genius!
This is the second video I've seen with the same recommended starting gear; sling bag and mrig. I'm curious to stance. I'm starting with standard edition and start with a couple of harnesses and MBSS backacks. I'm guessing buying the smaller items is for the sake of not losing those initially or what? Also character starts with AK74U. That's on keeping it/using it out the gate?
*GREAT and MUCH needed/appreciated video!* THANK YOU - Just one tip for time: 3:44 if you're going to show the images of the guns (which is GREAT for a tutorial video), then you have to do it _properly..._ - LABEL them! Also, don't have one gun up while talking about 2 different guns - for a noob, it gets confusing.... Like here.... why not show the MP5? Wow, this game is a steep learning curve... so...does a different stock on the rifle _really_ make any difference??? 😵

Well you don't always HAVE to fight them...if you see a 4 man squad and you are a solo player with a shitty makarov you better wait for them to pass or go the opposite way. Regardless, even with gear disadvantage, you always have a chance to kill even the most geared player, but you need to be the one who has control over the fight.

Honestly, if you're going to recommend the AKM but suggest staying on semi-auto because 7.62 AKs are so hard to control for new players, why not just recommend the 7.62 Vepr? It's cheaper, uses the same ammo, and can be extremely effective. You'll still level your AR skill (and mastery for the entire AKM family), and playing on semi exclusively will help you learn to place your shots. I'm almost level 30 and still using it because it just feels great to use, is cheap, and you're pretty likely to get it back from insurance. If anything I'd even recommend it over the SKS if you want to use magazines rather than pocket ammo.
Vepyr is a BEAST! I am a "new" player and i dropped a Level 50 FULL GEAR guy, with nightvision, m1 50 mags etc. with a double tap in the head, he didn´t even know WHAT dropped him. He was a streamer, so i watched my kill afterwards in his videos and it was funny as hell, he was so mad... I got lucky that i stayed at the ONE spot right after i heard him... Was quite nice and i made like 500.000 Rubels just selling his stuff on the market and traders :) Vepyr is my weaopn of choice, i guess the correct 7.62 ammo is insane against armor.
No. As a new play the akm was one of my best friends. I also kept a it on full auto. Would tap fire for guys far away and then be able to hip fire and shred a guy up close. The vepyr will get you killed close range especially if your new .

josh waterman just the other day played on woods for the first time and spawned in as a scav with a vepr hunter. Had no clue where I was but I heard someone coming towards me. Luckily I had an ai scav that was near me that I used as a distraction, got the drop on the guy and let loose on him probably just 5m away. Except he had a teammate, so I ducked back around the corner, reloaded while he dealt with the scav, then let loose on him. Both were high level and had decent gear.
@@joshwaterman5526 Mostly because it is about the same RoF, but higher recoil because you can't get major reduction mods til way later. Handguard with a slot for a foregrip, but the one from Peacekeeper LL1 doesn't do enough. AKM, even from the Flea Market, always has more options, and a higher chance that you can just add loot to the gun (Foregrip, Light, 'most' sights w/e) because it's a bit more forgiving.
Pretty sure removing rear sights significant screws distance shooting
Tbf, as a new player, you're probably not going to get into those sorts of engagements anyway. At least that's how it's been for me as I just started playing only a week ago.
@@Vagabond671 i would strongly recommend keeping it on. You don't want to get the shot on a target then wonder why it wasn't a hit and maybe the game is bugged etc.
Don't train bad habits :)
it does
@@gemore what bout k rearsights and i tried removing it with other guns and it screws those up but not the aks
@@cookiesandcream8442 honestly haven't tested each gun so it wouldn't surprise me if it was a problem for some guns but not others. However if there is one thing tarkov has taught me is presume the worst case ever time and you'll minimise being tarkov'd
killed a guy today that had your dog tag and what had to be your sks on him. I will cherish your dog tag forever
Hey you! I want my shit back haha thanks for avenging my death!
Who killed him?
Apostassy, with a Mosin, on Interchange. I have his tag still too.
Untill the next wipe :p
What about dat SKS tho
@4:40 thank you for that comment. I know since most people watching videos like this are new and feeling discouraged by dying so much, a simple comment like this makes the difference between leaving to play CoD and sticking around to learn Tarkov. These are some of my favorite beginner videos I've watched.
If I can add/confirm some tips too, for those interested.
Balaclava is more effective at keeping you alive than a pacca most of the time.
Save your Recharcable batteries for the ADAR trade. The ADAR is a very accurate and modifiable weapon. Mostly cheap to mod and if you play sneaky for a few raids you'll absolutely be able to make money to buy at least one more once you reach level 5 for the flea market.
Save face masks (×3) early on for free pacca armor from Ragman. It's basically free armor or quick cash to sell it back to Ragman to level up the trader.
Most importantly, use decent to good ammo! I cant tell you how many times I've won a gunfight because the PMC trying to kill me us using crap ammo where I'd have been dead wife they'd used better ammo.
Hope this helps confirm and cement info for new players
I would actually say to use literally the best ammo. You can have the shittiest, low-ergo gun with the highest AP round and it'll be infinitely more effective than a kitted-out gun with lackluster ammo. And if you want to argue that top tier ammo is harder to afford for newer (level 5+) players, loading a mag mostly with PS or PP rounds, then topping each one off with 10-15 AP rounds like BS or BP is also viable since your first shots should be the ones that count the most. I would say to always make sure you have a little extra money before going into a raid so you can always splurge on good ammo and always insure everything just in case.
How do we know what good ammo is?
@@SavageSenzu Look at NoFoodAfterMidnight's ammo chart. In most cases, the best ammo is typically the one with the highest pen damage- OR a round with a good pen value to pen damage ratio. Otherwise, you have two options based on your play style. Aim for center mass and use high-pen rounds, or aim for the legs and use high flesh rounds. The latter is much easier said than done. In most cases, you'll find taking your time and tap firing for solid body shots or headshots way more rewarding than burst-firing or even spraying, especially with AKs, since they're typically the first guns you'll wind up using.
For example, 7N39 is the highest pen value 5.45x39 round, however, BS, the second best pen value round, does more overall regular damage than 7N39. So even though 7N39 is technically a better round, its price doesn't justify it unless you're going fully geared to Interchange or Labs, as BS can do basically the same thing for every armor class below 6 (It can still go through class 6 armor, but 7N39 does have an easier time). Besides, people very rarely even go out with class 6 armor, as class 5 and even 4 can be more than enough with less movement penalties. Better ammo becomes more accessible as you level up your traders, so don't feel bad if you're not using the top armor pen ammo all the time, you'll definitely be able to kill scavs with the lower level pen rounds like PP for 5.45x39 or PST for 9mm respectively. If you want just a super quick breakdown of what to use, I can go over the most used weapon platforms. Okay, so:
5.45x39mm - PP or BT for budget, BS or 7N39 for high pen.
7.62x39mm - PS for budget, BP for high pen.
7.62x54R - 7N1 for budget, 7N37 for high pen.
9x19mm - PST or GT (Green Tracer) for budget, AP 6.3 for high pen.
Those are the only calibers I would recommend using early on.
I wouldn't worry about it until you're a decent level with high-level traders, but if you're curious about more expensive calibers, then:
5.56x45mm - M856A1 (It's a tracer round) for budget, and M995 for high pen.
9x39mm - SP6 for budget, BP for high pen.
7.62x51mm - M80 or M62 for budget, M61 for high pen.
4.6x30mm - Only really use AP SX honestly.
5.7x28mm - ss190 for budget, l191 (Tracer round) for high pen.
And if you're goofy enough to use it,
12.7x55mm - ps12 for "budget", ps12b for high pen.
Shotguns fall in a different category and are kinda weird and bad more often than not, so I'll just say, only use 12 gauge RIP rounds for high flesh, and AP 20 (slug) rounds for high pen.
Hope this helps! Keep in mind, budget doesn't necessarily mean "way cheaper" and sometimes it's better to just go for the highest pen ammo, this is truer for more expensive guns usually.
The dogtag thing is level 8 and lower. Level 9 and up you're better off selling them to therapist, there are other trades for higher level tags aswell.
Jack Schitt thx.
You don't even know how much these videos are helping me and telling me new things about this game as a new player, I'm level 6, stuck on some tasks, learning customs and trying to get better loot as i try to go in as a PMC but i don't know what loadouts to take, i usually go naked with a pistol but now i will give these guns a try. Thanks a lot my dude, it's really appreciated.
I started playing a few days ago, so far i'm having a ton of fun. I generally want to thank you for these videos towards new players they've helped me a lot. On a side note, holy shit the headphones made a massive difference
Haha ya theya re unreal. You are so welcome buds I'm jsut happy you enjoy the content.
What do the headphones aid with?
@@Brandonacat hearing.
One more: with Peacekeeper, one harddrive = Flyye MBSS Backpack
Second day.. only made it out once ... This game is hard. Lol at least until I get used it it.. I lost alot but I realized to just use scav until I build stuff up and use my main character for offline mode until everything comes together and such... Because I feel like I hit people a million times and they don't die ... Lol overall very fun game xD
Hey Justin, Alex was wondering if you're coming to the beach tomorrow?
Thanks so much for this.
I just started playing EFT only a week ago (it's been kicking my ass thoroughly) and found your Beginners Guide video to be extremely helpful! And this has answered my questions about loadouts as well.
Also, I highly suggest you watch Krashed for his thought process on how he tackles engagements. Tarkov is pretty much a chess game disguised as a shooter.
Geekseh provided a great foundation and watching him live will also help give you an idea on how to succeed in Tarkov!
Thank you for this. I just started and have been at a loss as to how I should start out as a new player.
Just know everyone goes through this it's normal dont let it discourage you from this amazing amazing gamr
I've been exclusively farming the ground level carpark on Interchange, both scav and pmc runs. I haven't dared venture into the centre proper, even if I spawn in the back rooms or near the isolated escalators. It's straight down into the carpark for me. As a scav, you won't find too many players down there, so you can easily farm the various weapon and grenade crates as well as often finding accessories, medical items and ammunition. A good scav run on the carpark can easily net you 50-100k in loot, let alone the gear you start with. That might not sound like a lot for more experienced players, but for new players who have yet to even unlock the flea market, that's big bucks.
If you have the time or a nearby spawn as a scav, it's also worth hitting up the building next to the 3000R extract. The jackets often have keys and you're close enough to the south exit that you can hug the centre's wall and get out without a scuffle most times.
+Dylan Wight I really like your perspective. You are all about quantity. The juicy boys can go upstairs and fight over kiba. Here youa re eating like a king downstairs alone. Good on you buds.
@@geekseh It's safe. It might not be exciting, but I'd rather live to fight another day than get one-shotted in the back by a scav boss or some player I never noticed.
Actually the carpark has a pretty interesting dynamic of its own. Lots of cover and concealment looking out over open sight lines. It's not hard to navigate safely and avoid fights, but it's also easy enough to get the drop on the scavs. They're pretty predictable down there.
On the AK platforms use the GP-25 rubber recoil pad. It gets your recoil down even further, while it only costs approximately 5000 Roubles. Lvl 1 Prapor sells it.
really apperciate the in depth builds at the end, been having trouble finding the right attachments and having no luck with the linked searches from the weapons / market.
On the front sights on the sks there is a thicker line on the bottom and a thinner line on the top, when you have the rear sights, you are aiming with the top, however without it, precision shots/longer range would require the aiming with the thicker line below the usual thinner front sight lines. CQC shouldn't matter so just remove rear for more screen space
yes thank you i was waiting for someone to say this
Tbh I appreciate the work put into it, but I would add something: The rubber butt pad for 3k roubles is a great investment if you dont want to use a foregrip (or use both),
and at lvl. 2 you can get the vpo-136, which is equivalent to the adar, but cheaper to mod with a recoil penalty tho but more damage.
Rubber also goes both on pp19 and ak-family so really good to mod.
maaan! Just went in with an SKS build, killed a JUICED lv65 off the bat as he was using his factory shortcut on customs, got his full kit, almost got to extract, ran into 3 player scavs, killed 2, but the 3rd pushed me on the reload. Was hella fun!!!
i just got into tarkov a little over a month ago, your SKS loadout worked great for me! hot take no headphones are better then GSSh's. Also on the latest update you can get an RFB and M80 rounds from Peacekeeper LV2 and they shred just about everything I run into, highly recommend the gun, easy to mod but no full auto
Thank you SO much for this video dude!!! I started tarkov about a week ago and the info you gave and the way you presented had helped in a huge way! No rags to riches story from me yet but over the past two days I’ve been making money faster than I’m loosing it which is big for me lmao
You got yourself a new subscriber
honestly, the ADAR is the best rifle for beginners for your first geared runs with armor and helmet.
At the beginning i struggled so hard with the Recoil in this game, and the Adar is the only rifle that has low recoil from the get go. 30 Round Magazine, precise and because of the low recoil you can spam it in close ranges when a scav jump scares you. And it is precise for long range shots if you try those.
No need to mod it. A sight and a low profile MK12 gas block is all you might need. But the Standard sights are great too.
At the beginning of the game you will die so many times that modding them is a waste of money.
The best game tutorials I've ever watched, thanks dude , that was very helpfull
These videos are really helpful especially for a brand new player like myself since the game can feel really daunting at times, thanks!
7:46
With the exception of Skier's Quest of killing PMCs with a Pistol. Unlocks at lvl 8, but best to wait until ppl are a little further along and better at a map, or more comfortable with the game.
I am new to this game, only level 9, but it was so satisfying when i had the breakthrough of not dying everyraid and it being more of a 50/50. Also i had a ton of T-plugs and i just sold them all rather than trading, F.
For the ADAR build you don't need the low profile block. There is another one that has a mount for a front iron sight that is not only cheaper to buy doesn't have a buy limit per reset. Works fine with that foregrip and doesn't block field of view.
for the sks its good to spend literally an extra 5k for a 20 round mag makes a massive difference
Sks doesnt have an external mag
the 10 round one is internal bud
@@golfer435 Yes it does. It has a 20 round detachable box mag, you need to uninstall the 10 round internal mag and you can put that in.
just started playing EFT and im so glad you do these in depth vidoes. thanks man!!!!!
+byron maldonado no man thanks for watching
You give me the life in tarkov bro... i was very frustrating when i died because of my nooby lodout.
Thanks for all this awesome tutorials
Thanks for just watching
Just started playing the other day. My biggest issue is every game I've played as pmc I dont see anyone until like 10 minutes into a game when I get destroyed by 2 players geared to the teeth. I only see scavs when I play as a scav. Playing on customs
Thank you so much for all your work in these videos. I am only new to Tarkov and your videos have helped my game so much. Appreciate it and keep up the great work 🤙
If new, play factory and go scav. Try kill pmc’s or just loot the gear, it’s free stuff and I’ve gotten some mega items out (kiba key 1.4m)
Learn gun play and how to fight, I started on customs and it’s a big map to learn.
I'm going to give this a go, I've been learning customs and agree. It's simple but large with a lot of scav spawns to try to remember and most of the extracts are really inconvenient to get to as a new player trying to just survive and get out with loot. It can be tricky picking out where you're being shot at from with all the cover at customs too which makes just surviving even trickier.
If only I could have watched this when I started. (It's been only 4 days but damn my choices were not cost effective). I found the ADAR by myself to be an amazing weapon, it SHREDDDSS !
Great video !
I have been watching alot of tarkov videos because I got tarkov 3 days ago and I got grounded for a month and I never got to play it so I'm sitting here watching all your tarkov videos
Keep up the guides bro, do a in depth guide about ammo please :D
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l_8zSZg-viVTZ2bavMEIIKhix6mFTXuVHWcNKZgBrjQ/htmlview?sle=true

@@kykcreep4423 Alright thank you! Now I want to ask, am I looking for more armor pen basically? Let's say I have no budget for ammo I can buy anything and I want 5.56 ammo, would I just go for highest armor pen is that the meta for dealing with class 5?
@@BlootusWealth yeah it is but i would rlly spend the money on better bullets because it doesnt matter which weapon you have its just a matter of which bullets ignores the amor of the enemy
Really really liked the last section of the video, earned a sub. Great content
You forgot the rubber butt pad on the AKs. That thing get's the recoil down drastically and makes shouldering an AK way more comfortable for your PMC.
Single handedly got me into tarkov. Thanks
I have watched over 15 videos for new players got a lot of new info from this video Subscribed
taking off the rear sight on the sks does affect the accuracy att range
Very informative, clear and concise. Thank you very much for your point of views. Subscribed for more
New to the channel, just got this gamer yesterday. Thank you for all the help, advice, maps and spreadsheets!
Hey first video I’ve ever watched from u and I love the editing during the weapon builds. Having the pics of the parts next to the gun are really helpful. Could u do more weapon build videos in the future? Extremely helpful. Thanks
3 tushonka for AKM Prapor lvl 1? Why does everyone ignore this epic trade?
that akm in factory is delicious! 10+ kills assured, lost it after the third succesfull raid tho
Probably because tushonkas are a quest item (find 10 tushonkas in raid or smth like that)
I don't :)
Not that epic now as we need to keep every bit of food just to stay alive 😝
@@joshwaterman5526 food is easy to get, + u got therapist
Do not take the rear sight off the SKS, it will keep it aimed the same horizontally, but vertically you can aim at the head and hit someone in the chest, or go straight over them. It becomes very inconsistent.
Yeah, I loled at that """"tip"""". It's like HEY GUYS TAKE OFF A MAGAZINE FROM YOUR GUN IT MAKES IT LIGHTER, same usefulness
So glad your sub count is growing
Thank you for this I've been playing this game for a long time and I still lernd something ..
Nice vid... Helps a lot. Subscribing in hopes you keep up the high quality vids. This is the shit that i DO like
This GeeksEh is amazing haha - just got this in my related and I love it.
Use the AK-74m over the AK-74N even without the traders you can get the AK-74M on the flea market around 21k rubles and it takes all the same attachments and ammo, and it also has slightly lower recoil. all for a cheaper price tag. Also if you want to buy an ADAR and don't have Level 2 traders and no Rec Batteries, you can just buy one off the flea market as well for only 15k rubles or less normally. Deals can really be made on the flea market if you look, so don't lose out on some seriously cheap but effective weapons.
Amazing work. Really clean and clear explanation. Please keep these streamlined how-to videos coming!
Protip for the AK-74/74N/ect: slap a recoil pad on there. -5% recoil reduction is quite something for something so cheap (and 1 ergo :P)
Ive been saving the knives off of the scav runs for the mp5 and it had made a big difference. In money saving.
I have a problem. I am a newbie at Tarkov, but I love it. I've had it for a couple years but only dabbled with it and barely played it because I've been soloing and it's rough as you know. Now though I'm really digging it, especially with all the great patches. I usually run as a Scav, and usually only a pistol and a vest as a PMC, but I'm starting to change that up now.
I'm trying to get my brother and cousin into it, who love shooter looters and aren't into fast play FPS's anymore, basically because we aren't as good anymore as the youngins. They make jokes about having to smelt your bullets. Never having played it, they think it's boring and too complicated. I try to convey that they should think it more of a rpg or PvE game than PvP. Also, that the raids are timed and that you can get in and out of it quickly if you want. We often have conflicting schedules to play.
Any suggestions on how I might convince a few people to at least try the game (I bought my brother a copy that's unused except for 5 minutes). Even one of them on for a bit, there's a large hurdle of a learning curve in the beginning. What do you guys love about the game, that maybe might convince someone to give it a go? Thanks!
Found your channel today during the "drops". Then, somehow, stumbled upon this video. Thanks for both!
Thank you
Hey. Your dope. Awesome help. Only thing I’d ask is a bit more info on prices if possible 😬 like “this modded gun cost 100k after all the parts” and things. Just seems like an interesting point to consider. Thanks a ton man!
Will consider for sure
2:48... is it me, or does it look like after taking the rear sight off, the gun looks further away from you when you aim?
3:00
Edit: yep it definitely does
Thanks for putting all that together. Learned alot. Keep it up!
Man I am so tired of the SKS but I play my scav so much more often than my main and I've barley leveled. I feel like scavs are so much easier to e-vac because they come in late game.
Solid video !!! so much great info
7:36 heyy the GSSH-01 is my favorite and i recomend to u even more if u have 7.1 virtual audio headphones like me
The fact that you said "so maybe subscribe idk up to you" made me subscribe
Thanks for making this and not going too much into crazy details.
Did it annoy anyone else how he said pst gzh, and gssh? Also for the ak build at the end, dont need the new stock just add a buttpad, instead of the sight mount buy either the dovetail sight from lvl 1 Prapor or use an okp-7 dovetail sight it's a common drop on saiga-12 shotguns (on scavs) and replace the default muzzle device :)
The dovetail sight from prapor lvl 1 doesn't work on ak
@@alexpivniouk8421 on the ak 74m it does, it has a dovetail mount on it
Why you gatta flex TWO GAMMA CASES ON ME CMON BRUH WHY U GOT TWO
How do you get a second? I just have one lol
@@jsalonis You can buy one or trade one. I can't remember exactly.
My guess is flea market. Some people sell their gamma when they got kappa
if im not wrong he has edge of darkness edition, which gives you gamma right away and one from trader tasks
this was good content , thanks geekseh
I only played a couple of days and want to say to other new plaers, to just play Scav for now. If you manage to survive and extract you get so much free guns, bags, rigs, armor, helmets etc etc for fre that you can either sell, hand in to Prapor (M 133 shotguns etc) or just keep an play with as your PMC. I first started to play only as my PMC anb I died all the time (mostly to AI Scavs) and lost all my start up gear and went broke. Play as a Svac on no other AI scav will shoot at you and most player scav wont as well.
So play as Scav and build up a stash.
If you are grabbing a sling you might as well upgrade to a duffle. 3x the cost on flea but double the storage space.
@19.53 No you dont need that rail. you can get a grip that is m-Lock ready. no need on extra expenses. or you could switch for a Daniel rail and put what ever on.
what early game 5.56 would you recommend for the ADAR
Nicolas Gonzalo in my opinion 5.56 isn’t really worth running until you can AT LEAST use M856a1 ammo, but I personally just use m995 or I don’t use a 556 weapon.
But keep in mind you technically only have to get to level 5 to use any ammo in the game because you can buy it off the flea market.
Good 5.56 ammo is very expensive, M856a1 is good for now
M856a1 or m855a1 are good budget options. M995 is best but so damn expensive, especially for new people
I'm with Smiles on this one, either go m995 or don't use the gun at all. I found the second best ammo in the 5.56 caliber (m856a1) is pretty trash even vs lvl4 helmets, so I guess it's not really worth running.
I’m still new (lvl 16 now) I mostly used AK74’s i picked up scavs and players I’ve killed or even found dead. I found out ammo is everything. Get you an AK 74 buy a cobra or a okp and buy BT ammo. BT was recently buffed and the price for BT Ammo.
I believe the devs have mentioned that they will be (or already have? IDK) made it so removing one of the iron sights (front or back) on a gun will decrease the accuracy of said gun, as doing this in real life would make it much more difficult to line up a shot.
To clarify this even more AMMO IS SO IMPORTANT!!!!!!!! I only use the best bullets even though they are expensive. When I use an SKS I use 7.62x39 PB and I can kill people that have forts and m4s. If you have something like tracers you wont kill anyone that has armor.
So can you get better pouch things like so u don’t have to but the more expensive tarkovs ?
I straight up have been binging all your content lmao
Lol first time I've ever seen any of your videos. Made me laugh a lil but first thought when i seen your logo was Nurse Disrespect haha
Hi, yes I'm new and I'm shaking lol. Nice beginner load outs. I will be using them.
The first super intense fight I had gave me a nerdgasm. It felt like no other game could replicate how these fights feel. Trying to load my mags while my guy is breathing heavy from being shot in the chest. Just so awesome. I cant explain how nervous I was either. 🤣
I use blank aks a ton and I’m really good with them
A really great video, thx to you :)
Can these mods be bought from normal dealers, or do you need fleemarket access? if so, i woudln't call this beginner oriented because it takes a lot of time to get to level 10 when you can't pick and choose your mods.
Regardless, once you're out of money and the inventory is empty, the game turns to garbage unless you're exceptionally decent at shooters. Play a scav, survive 5 minutes, 20 minute cooldown. That's just a set up for pay to play later to skip that Q. The only way to survive if you're not good is to lay in a bush till there's less than 10 minutes left, and hope everyone already left.
Butpad for the last ak build only 2k and it helps a lot
And the PP. You could argue you don't need much recoil reduction in that but he took an RK-1. I'd sooner go rubber butt and SRVV for recoil and save on a cheaper grip like the RVG than go with a pricier grip like the RK-1.
ty bro, u helped me so so much :)
I just played the game and watched this video. I tried SKS and while it performs quite well, it's pretty hard for me to aim with the stock sight. Is there any good sights for sks that I can get from lvl 1 traders?

The descriptions of the modded guns killed me 😂 Keep up the good work my man!
Thanks bro for all the info! Hope to catch your stream soon
So I just got the game. Took for ever to figure out how to even get it unpacked and be able to open. But I have played controller my whole life and 42yrs old now. What keybinds should i be setting up. Any links would be great
Veritas has an amazing video on that. Also come into my twitch chat and type !pedals. I use pedals to lean left and right cause I came from an Xbox background too

This is the second video I've seen with the same recommended starting gear; sling bag and mrig. I'm curious to stance. I'm starting with standard edition and start with a couple of harnesses and MBSS backacks. I'm guessing buying the smaller items is for the sake of not losing those initially or what?

- Just one tip for time: 3:44 if you're going to show the images of the guns (which is GREAT for a tutorial video), then you have to do it _properly..._ - LABEL them! Also, don't have one gun up while talking about 2 different guns - for a noob, it gets confusing.... Like here.... why not show the MP5? Wow, this game is a steep learning curve... so...does a different stock on the rifle _really_ make any difference??? 😵
30 sec in the video and i aleready love it keep it going
nice guide btw so how this loadout look like if im using those starting gun ? clip instead of bullet stack ?
Depends on your money situation one in gun 2 extra in rig is more then enough plus some extra in gamma or alpha
