I reckon there's one more thing that could help when the wipe hits is knowing where tarkov saves its config files: C:\Users\ [Your Username] \AppData\Roaming\Battlestate Games\Escape from Tarkov\Settings. Copy everything inside and save it somewhere else that you won't forget, if the settings got wiped after the wipe(happened before), just paste it back and you are good to go!
On all other wipes I at least had half a week to grind tarkov before school or just no responsibilities but the wipe is happening during school so I needed this video
I’ve never even been able to get to flea market access, so arena realllllly helped me see what progression can feel like in EFT and I am very excited to finally feel established in Tarkov! First official wipe for me! Let’s GO
Super awesome vids as always! I've been staying in touch with Tarkov after taking a year long hiatus and I believe your vids are what's making me so pumped for this upcoming wipe :D Thanks for the great content, and I'm once again happy to be a tarkov vet and still learn after 4k hours.
Ive been to Hawaii 4 times and be back next month that bird song rings in my head every time i leave its something very distinct to that beautiful place.
Some really helpful tips on this video man. I'm only into my third or fourth wipe, I tend to play solo and fairly infrequently, so a lot of those tips really help
Even after starting my 5th wipe i got some really good advice from this video. Appreciate it man! Excited to see some early wipe highlightvideo from you!
This is a really good overview on the most important stuff. It also plays into another important factor - not getting broke. Being smart about what you pick up in a raid can make or break your stash, your bank and thus your progression. I'm mostly min-maxing items in terms of trader prices before I hit level 15, resulting in not having to focus on the spending part of leveling traders. It also has the nice side-effect of getting rich early on without having to jump into every firefight, meaning that when I get to the flea market, I'm not as restricted as others in how much I can spend. This in return makes acquiring items for hideout upgrades much easier. I think the main difference between me and the vast amount of streamers and sweats is that I focus on making money first to ease up my progression, while most others focus on exp. Both strats have the same outcome in terms of progression/speed, but since I play more passive, I usually have a bit higher k/d and SR, and a lot more money in the first weeks of the wipe.
I plan on using arena to progress and focus on having fun raids in eft. The money is great as well, which means I can pay for hideout upgrades instead of scavving for money. A couple games a day can be 1 mil. I plan on rushing to Bitcoin farm so maximize long term money making to keep myself funded all wipe.
I have a tip for people, start crafting ost m4 ammo as soon as you can and get the armoury key for streets it has like a 80%chance to spawn an m4 and 40% to spawn 2 its a cheap key too like 20k
You always make such quality content! For sure one of my favorite creators. My wife and I are planning on moving to Hawaii by the end of the year, super excited for it it's such a beautiful place! Glad to see you back making content brother!
Hey tickle your not a loser & you know it, half of us would be gracious to be able to have 10k hours while still living comfortably, props to you my friend. Cheers to 20k hours ;)
good info use it while you can nakita said just a few days ago only a couple more wipes coming that tarkov is going to a prestige system instead of wipes soon so not every one will be starting at zero at the same time
Very informative video! I'm also wondering how much Arena is going to change the wipe, I hope it's not too overpowered and doesn't take away from the main game's early wipe experience.
@@TickleMePinkGaming you’re the man, also if you ever make that car channel lmk, I work for an aftermarket motorsports company. Kies Motorsports if you’ve heard of us!
I mean setup gatekeeps a ton of quests that are relatively easy and give you a lot of XP as well as kappa and lightkeeper. I would say that's one of the priority quests early wipe when people aren't running anything and you can just shotgun everyone down while they're doing the quest as well.
Been playing tarkov since 2019 haven't played arena much and I work 30 days away from home and left the day of wipe for work so I will be behind. Since this wipe will be a short one I'm probably gonna grind arena just to get better at the game and go for my first kappa next wipe
Tickle, great video as always! I hear that BSG fuck up the sound? More than the last wipe?? Well at least they buff 7.62 and 5.45 my favourite calibers hahaha tomorrow I'm heading home so I will begin this wipe at least, I hope I'm not far behind right now... Thank you for your videos, this will help me a lot! Always learning in this game!
Random question I know, but how do you deal with the nerves/anxiety of playing by yourself? Especially when the tasks involve going to the highly contested areas? I’m always behind on level and gear because of life/work. Thank you for the video!!
Hi! I love pvp at tarkov but i suck. Do you recommend buying arena to improve at pvp and lvl up my normal account with 0 risk? Because i was so bad that i had the game for 4-5 wipes and i only played "normally" for 1 of them, and i only got lvl 12 or 13 max. I'm just afraid to spend more money on tarkov, what do you think?
I think this is the first wipe I’m not excited for. Prob cuz it’s been like 5 years and 5k hours but idk how you still have fun in tarkov man tell me your secrets
So, started late last wipe, got really frustrated with the salewa spawns I was getting in the maps I was playing, IE, interchange and Ground Zeros, then I left that shit on the back burner and decided to progress other traders, second raid on Shoreline, I got 4 salewas in a single go, 3 out of the 4 ambulances I checked had them, and after that basically everytime I went to Shore, I got at least one Salewa, I guess it's luck of the draw
For gear, I'd agree. For progression, scaving interchange or Shoreline. Just avoid the resort and sunken village on shoreline. Path to lighthouse is the choice for most chads to extract from resort. I hit the pier and the gas station fire jump, then out. I'll hit the town (not the chalet's) for tech loot if I have that extract. Radar station if I'm going to Road to Customs. I do not hit them upon entering. You'll get too heavy, too fast.
couple of tips for gas ans and flash drive they can spawn in safes and filing cabinets, GO TO STREETS, i would probably say on that the are at least 50-60 filing cabinets and about 3 free safes around the map. plus toolboxes, tech supply crates and tech spawns can also spawn gas ans. Streets this wipe is by far my most played map and the amount of those annoying bastards i find casually whilst looting is nuts.
Tbh ive found A LOT of gas analyzers on interchange(well, at least I see them pretty frequently, not actually looting them most of the time), the tech stores and spawns on interchange quite often have gas analyzers. Also a great place to get items you need for upgrading your hideout early on.
@Handcannon77 only problem is for the first 3 weeks of wipe everyone and their mom are using those spots, bc they are common knowledge like the interchange pc route to get pc components/gpus for farming part 3. They are good, but unless u get there first and manage to not extract camped on interchange. Just sayin on streets barely any1 are hunting down these filing cabinets, plus i forgot to say the number of tech spawns on that map is high also which spawns the gas ans. Personally i say do whichever map you feel comfortable on but i dont a single person going to streets for these or even mention it in videos bc i dont think people know that some of these items can spawn in filing cabinets
streamers get max traders in a few days and they are crying all over twitter about not having something to do in game and about the wipe being short lmao... people need to chill and enjoy the game no one give a damn fk if anyone is the first getting traders or kappa kekw
I feel like there are way more players in the US than in Europe. I just started playing but I have done about 20 raids and met pmc's maybe 6 or 7 times.
Apparently, leveling in EFT using Arena will not be possible. They mentioned something about not linking the leveling process between two modes, as its way too quick (3 games done, with 1 weekly and 2 dailies = lvl10)
@@TickleMePinkGamingI reset my pvp acc to test it few days back, I started off lvl1 arena and eft, I got to lvl10 arena but my eft is still lvl1, despite all skills levelling properly (can’t send sh*t from arena to eft tho, cause I get no messages from ref at all)
@@TickleMePinkGaming I sorta hope that’s the reason, because I’ve been planning to rush ref and get the 64gp coin key tool, which would be sorta hard without arena transfers from the get go

Usec is easier on lighthouse.

Bsg planned a bear camp as well
Arena isn’t connected to main gain anymore xp wise. Grinded my weekly and daily’s the last few nights and no gains on the main game.
I love it when streamers talk about "early" quests that I've never even unlocked.
it highly depends the order you do different quests as well
Be unemployed
Easy
Streamers's emloyment is playing video games no? Keep coping
@@hypham7555 You're a bot
@@andrewtanner6171 sure am 🤣
@@hypham7555this is a video for how non streamers can max out traders bozo
To be fair i think one of the best things about ref early on is EASY ACCESS TO NVGs allowing u to really take advantage of night raids early on
This is a great tip I shouldve mentioned it
Does everyone not just crank up their gamma and contrast to see in the dark?
@@hitthemafia i just recently found out i literally cannot adjust my (monitor)gamma on my laptop, it is a fucking pain.

GENIUS HOLY SHIT
Thanks for sharing this
I love you
Doing that takes more time than just setting them up again lmao 😂
Hell yeah, what a move
This is my first official wipe.. excited
Youre in for a treat
don't forget that this game has a lot of ups and downs
Welcome! Get some friends if you don't have anyone to explain things to you.
welcome and I hope you dont get upset when you die. You will die a lot.
You should probably watch a beginners guide since this is more aimed torwards people who know the mechanics of this game & the maps well.
Im gonna save you 33 minutes the secret is not having a job
this should now be re-named: “how basically everyone got lvl 70 1 month in” and it should just be you playing arena
Bro, you're awesome. So many streamers have such egos... you're better player than most with half of that ego
Appreciate that man!
Mad glazer 😂😂
The best players in Tarkov don't stream. They run into Factory and wipe the lobby for a giggle and move on with their day. 20 minutes. In and out.
Zip it up when you’re finished bro
On all other wipes I at least had half a week to grind tarkov before school or just no responsibilities but the wipe is happening during school so I needed this video
Fun fact, if you pick BEAR on arena you can buy the drip from ragman but still be a USEC in regular tarkov

So you can also tell if something is a quest item if there's a little yellow check mark on the bottom right of the item icon. It's normally white.

For the insurance. I Always insure my paca at the beginning. Even If I don't use them in raid anymore. They are still valuable for crafting🤗
My favorite thing to do is if I have a few bad raids, I just run a scav on Factory. Run to to extract and either sell or use the items on my scav.
clarification: setup is required now for skier progression, it got moved earlier in task line
Bro its been a minute lol Didnt recognize you without the blonde hair. I thought Nikita had taken over your channel for a sec lmao

roughly every 6 months
