I would say I'm new , I play tarkov at release for a few months then stopped then picked it back up recently, its a much better experience now but somehow much harder but that's more dealing with the experience level of most of the other players , im finding spawning in them waiting a while I have better chance to survive
agreed - I see so many players that will stand in the middle of a road or field and shoot at you instead of taking 3 or 4 steps to cover before shooting. General rule is only take fights you can win, even if you can win a fight how much gear can you make it out of a raid with early game. With new players you dont have to run just stand still go prone and they will walk by you.
@@tomr3422 I'm gonna stop trying missions too customs is kicking my ass most of the time , been doing scav runs on shoreline and they go well but think I'm gonna start doing woods and reserve runs now and not worry about tasks for a while
@@djimma5080 personally i'd say learn interchange for scav runs. There's a route i take through Idea that makes me consistent money with relatively low risk. Oli spawn also has a good route through offices then out the back though it tends to get a little more combat as players are headed through it towards extract.
@@ultimomos5918 there it is I spawned in interchange there yesterday walked a couple steps and bumped into a pmc while there was only 15 minutes left 😂
Looting is a skill and the higher it is the more valuable stuff you will find. You need to take everything with you even if you dont need it. Throw it out later for more valuable stuff.
@@stefanManiak262011 screws and cords and all that are worth A LOT with 2 cords (now 20k each on flea), lvl1 workbench and 2 hours of crafting time, you will get 8 wires which sell 12k each or more, the price jumps from 10k to 15k the most common screws bolts and common barter items are worth quite a bit on the flea market
@@LDZMarder According to wiki, the Attention skill increases your chance of discovering the better item first. So in the case of this video, the armor would have simply appeared first. It does not mean you find more valuable stuff. At elite levels, there's a chance the item is instantly discovered. escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Attention
Imagine being the dude going to woods like "alright get some quests done, do some sniping, get quick loot and dip" only to be killed by pest who's making an informative video on the loot run you were probably about to do for yourself lmao
went to woods with all my best gear at like level 15, sv98 suppressed with a "nice" scope, djeta helm, kurend armor? i think? mechanism backpack, went and started looting stashes on the edge of the map being careful of some of the closer spawns to me, was going to find a sniping spot and snipe 5 more scavs for quest and get out, somehow got shot in the eyes by 7.62 PS ammo, frame by frame i watched my death and never saw the guy. 10/10 terrified of woods now
@@M1N3RDOM you might've ran into the sniper scav territory, if there is a target sign then that means beyond that is the sniper scav territory, I might be wrong that's what killed you but it's a possibility
Thank you so much for this video. The learning curve in the game is insane so I've just been doing hours of offline mode/SCAV modes and this video gave me the courage to do my first online PMC raid. I bought the SKS and paired it with the 7.62x39 BP ammo, did some looting, and on my way to extraction I had the drop on another PMC, he dropped after one shot while he was crossing a makeshift bridge in Customs (This is the only map I know). I noticed his buddy was behind him and took a few shots at him and he took off up the hill. I Looted the PMC and found DT MDR w/ a suppressor, hybrid sight, and 60 round mag. He also had a Vepr Hunter with a suppressor, RDS, along with an m9A3. After extraction, it appeared his buddy bled out after running away. It didn't tell me where I hit either one of them because the stats just said "???" but anyway, this game is such an adrenaline rush. Sorry if I'm rambling but that was super exciting! THANK YOU AGAIN!
This is exactly what i used to do, i used to only run offline and scav runs because 0 risk is involved and if i wanted to guarantee myself some loot id just bring my gamma container and a hatchet(sometimes a PM pistol with a T Bag) andjust run lighthouse since its free loot
Thanks Pestily, you have done more for getting new players into this game and expanding the player base then anyone else I know. This game has went from a waste of my money to my favourite and most rewarding game thanks to your videos 👍
This is so useful for so many reasons. With everyone buying graphics cards and new PCs (just like I did) many of us can now play games that our old systems couldn't including Tarkov. I also appreciate that you showed a clean inventory like a new player would start. And the way you explained things as if actually talking to new people and the new experience instead of just tossing beginner tips hoping we'd be able to grab them. Having the beginning explanation with visual examples of what you're talking about is so good and finishing that first part of the video giving us the option to leave or stay to see you show examples in action. Showing your examples in action after that first part is that extra mile that makes this such an incredibly useful video. This is so well done on an "official" Tarkov game guide level status, thank you for doing this.
Got the game about a week ago. It's really an interesting game, with proper tension. Learned quite quickly to not play pmc, and just stick to scav. Better to have a chance of some profit, instead of handing out free loot to others at my own expense. And I never engage, unless shot at first. I doubt I will ever see level 10, but I still enjoy the game!
I'd really recommend spending an extra 3k on a balaclava for the loadout. Your face is really easy to be seen anywhere in the map so it's totally worth it.
sks found in raid are worht about 40k the sks itself is 25k ish on flea (atleast yesterday) and the internal 10 round mag is 10 to 15k i took every single sks out of a raid that was found in raid and made about 300k on a factory run and i found an rbrs key on a scav which is worth 300k in it self and i found a bitcoin that raid and some other shit came out of factory with 600k profit and i didnt even kill anyone
@@QckSGaming that's what you think. If someone is struggling that much then they're living rat life. They will crawl out of a bathroom stall with 10 minutes left in the raid and sweep the floors with the scav. 🤣
So I have had this game since version .05 over 3 years ago and I’ve only put in maybe 30 hours total in that time throughout the multiple wipes. I’ve always tried, but could never seem to find the right way to start in the beginning and would get so unmotivated to try. It’s caused me to lose the want to play a game that I’ve wanted to learn for so long. This video explaining this has made me realize a lot of simple things that noob players like me probably never realized. Don’t worry about quests. Just that realization honestly makes it so much easier to focus on the goal of just survive. Thank you pestily for this video, it gave me a want to pick up this game again and try to make it far in this wipe/patch. I can’t say I will do great, but I at least have an idea on what to do to make it past the early game.
Yeah I learned that the hard way after taking this guy's advice. He constantly says "don't worry about it as long as it's insured no one will pick ____ up" and it couldn't be a bigger lie. People take all kinds of shit all the time. Nothing is safe. Not even noob tier 1 armor or a basic starter pistol. Dropping anything is a complete gamble.
I suspect it gets used for aramids in the hideout. Considering you can exchange that for either the slick or a lvl 5 helmet and can be used to make a lvl3 helmet, and gives points for crafting skill....yeah, that PACA wont come back.
@Gavin Powell (Drops SKS to pick up a mosin) "Don't worry no one would pick up an sks".... bet he'd say no one would pick up your mosin either. His advice is subpar at best sometimes lmao
An advice for scav runs on interchange: pay attention to when you spawn, the raid starts at 45 minutes, if you spawn with 37+ minutes remaining rush the tech stores, do not bother with texo and techlight tho, since pmcs and other player scavs will be there, loot rasmussen, german and the other tech store (I can't remember the name) and look for gpus or tetrizes, if you find one, extract, if you spawn with 30 or less minutes remaining, loot oli or idea and then extract, if you spawn in the middle of those two, it's your choise if you want to risk it trying to loot the tech stores or if you want to just loot oli or idea, it depends on how many gunshots you hear and on what you have, personally if I do not have anything and I do not hear too many gunshots, or if I hear a lot of gunshots in the same place (4 to 5 different guns) I will try to rush the tech stores that are the furthest away from the gunshots and then extract if I find something. Almost every time I spawn 37+ minutes in I'm able to find a tetriz or a gpu, scaving on interchange is a really great way to make money and I couldn't recommend it more.
I cannot tell you how much this has helped me being a new player ! Thankyou for the advice and I will be watching watching more of your YT and twitch to learn more !
Perfect video for a new player (myself) who has been struggling for the past couple days trying to learn with minimal research. Best and worst part about this game is the risk/reward system. It's nice to see that you can still die and make progress. Thank you for your content, looking forward to more.
man i got over 200 hours and have never survived a pmc raid at any point ever literally reached like lvl 32 last wipe without a single pmc extract and it's extremely discouraging
@@cake2531 dying is usual. However I find it extremely hard to believe that you didn’t make out a single PMC raid. You need to work on positioning and stuff if your really dying that much. Learn from your deaths.
I would point out that at 27:41 when Pest notices the cache is looted, also take note it was still open. Most containers will close with time, meaning the person who looted that one could be relatively close. Pest did hear the guy but because he was focusing on teaching, he didn't really check around for the guy like he normally would have. Trust little indicators like that when you see them in the game world. The Interchange cache route is popular because it is the most linear cache route of any map making it the easiest to learn and run. Great video.
A bit of a pro-tip with the SKS is to take the rear sight off. The aim point on the front site is still accurate and it makes it easier to hit follow-up shots.
@@ioletsgoflare4857 you can inspect the gun and then view the gun parts. Then you can click on the gun parts and hit uninstall. I think that’s how you do it
Me and my friend got killed with class 5 armor from a buckshot scav( not player) from an insane range to the head. Lol don’t underestimate the buckshot
@@saophen lmao, i was using the maska with the visor and some guy with a vector just kills me with head, top of the head with ap .45 in the first shot, its depressing
The most important thing you showed imo is that even if you die you can come out on top and its not that big of a deal. I always thought dying was no matter what punishing and set you back but here you show that death is not always that bad. Go in cheap, loot up, don't take death too seriously. Good stuff here.
@@crashbandit7270 youre not kiddin. Every fucking map, im in a fight within 20 seconds. Customs, weve had multiple times where a 3 and two 4 man squads all spawn near trailer park and we just spend the first 20 mins of a raid fighting and flanking. shits stupid
@@JoshuaDay0550 i always spawn on customs and get a headshot from wherever. often with pistoles. mostly right after i spawn. or i just sit somewhere and scratch my balls, till someone littarly sprints up to me and kills me. i made no sound or anything, often also players and no scavs. ( my plan is to wait, till players killed each other and only a bunch of skavs are over so i can try to get my mission done, well, dont works for me) ... i just hate customs. i need to kill scavs there but i cant find scavs... i always get fucked by players pretty frustrating if youre new to the game. cause as far as i learned, its not my skill. its my spawn location. xD
Glad to see Pestily still making videos like this. When I was a wee little baby in Tarkov, Pestily was one of the only people willing to help new players, while also being entertaining to watch. Thanks for all your hard work.
21:48 - missed opportunity for the editors to dump a big "We Did" on the screen with a "ding" noise or something This is also a positive comment for the youtube Alegory
Hot damn, I used to do stash runs when I was new to the game in order to farm money for containers and utility-type items (docs cases & other useful things), but seeing decent armor and other goodies come out of stashes in this vid and on streams, I WOULD'VE KILLED FOR THAT when I started. You new guys sure have it good with stashes now.
@@smilie-pm9gb The get go of what, this wipe? Sure. If you're talking about the last few wipes, you're incorrect. I've looted enough stashes and ratted around enough when I was new to know the things you get in stashes now is AMAZING compared to previously. I ain't new to the game, I can tell the difference bud xD
I do a modified run. I run the parking garage. Tons of weapon crates down there. And whatever stashes are on the side of the garage I exit at I check. Always worthwhile to look.
Just start match, hide in bush, watch yt for 35 minutes, last 10 minutes match go and do quest, run to extract. I guess that's much faster then not being able to extract for 12 times in a row :D. You can also simply go night raid, run from bush to bush and dont move when you hear footsteps.
the quest item is player side no need to rush to it, it will be there for you if you have the quest active, slow play it kill a couple of scavs loot a few stash's until late in the raid and then grab it.
I subbed to you as soon as you said exactly what key binds you pressed for every action. You are absolutely unmatched in how helpful your videos have been!
This is my lucky week, an amazing woods guide coincidentally releases when I'm trying to learn woods, I'm able to catch the stream and get some drops, and a great guide for new players like myself!
@@nexadus-9113 I'd be down to play once I learn a bit more. I wanted to try my best to learn things solo at first that way I don't rely on my teacher to hard, but if you are in the Pestily discord just @Grimmarzt and I'll add you!
Did my very first raid on woods and couldn't believe my luck when I found the car extract. You can imagine my disappointment when I tried to take cover behind the car bonnet and got slotted by the snipers. I had no idea they were even there. Thanks bro 👌.
i got 1k hrs and still have much to learn, like i dont really know interchange for some reason, i dont like that map...it feels like playing minesweeper
Pestily: we gonna avoid the contested areas (goes to bunker) Pestily: okay after killing that player we just gonna leave the bunker and take some hidden stashes (searches the bunker) Pestily: okay learn the stash locations and avoid the highly contested area (forgets where the stash is and goes to marked circle) You not listening to yourself is why I love ur raid series. Much love, and cant wait for season 3 raid series to start!
Note on looting XP: You get experience points (AND skill points) for searching containers AND looting gear. Even if you don't want some of the stuff you find, it's not a bad idea to loot it and immediately drop it, because each item will give you raid XP to help you cross the Run Through threshold faster. (Not only that, it levels up your Charisma skill, which is needed for a task.) Ctrl+M1 puts loot directly into your pack or rig without needing to drag it over, and hitting your Discard button (Delete by default, highly recommended to remap to H) will instantly drop the item without having to use the drag-down list. With those hotkeys, you can fill your inventory with garbage loot and throw it all away again in less than a second.
Thanks for the video, I'm stuck at level 8 and have only been playing Factory and Customs and feel like I've hit a brickwall on leveling and money making.
shturman from god knows what distance: unmarked mine fields: suppressed sniper scavs: a sniper camper on every rock: a 5-10 scav spawn near you: cultists with tier 5 armor: are you sure about that?
Thank you for sharing this information it will help develop a like for the game instead of just getting smashed all the time and really not liking the game but will not quit because every death is a learning experience.
Gotta be honest ally biggest raids have been woods and Customs, I've only done 38 pmc raids but so far I can move about Customs without having to think too hard. And it's a juicy loot central
I started with Operator Drewski but Pestily definitely stole my heart. Aside from that weird stuff genuinely Pestily got me excited to play... I wasn’t disappointed. I was expecting punishment but boy I didn’t think I was going to receive this much lol After taking a week to figure out the controls and map it to my controller, learn the basics and a couple maps and their extract (which I failed to an extent) I went online. I did okay but no extractions. I extracted in my 3rd. Then I proceeded to die about 6 -8 times lol I was so mad searching how EFT is bad. But I thought of what Pestily and what other new and veteran players are saying. I love what this game is supposed to be. I will get better and well I ended up making baby steps. I know I can better since everyone seems to have started out rough. What makes this game good is that all players continue to push through the hard times and end up becoming better. And those who don’t honestly are the real mvps. Those who continue to play despite the hardships are better players than most. It’s tough to fight with the big dogs but it’s even tougher to continue fighting despite how much we lose. I will lose a lot and I’m okay. I will learn and no matter what I’ve got more balls to walk into this nightmare lol
You are my lord and saviour, thanks for explaining so much stuff to us (newcomers) !!! Absolutely hooked to this game and you provide tremendous help! Liked and subscribed
bruh i love how you keep teaching the nubs the same way ive been teaching my little nubs...10k per slot..fast interchange scav so u can get back to pmc for your long fat exp raids..stay away from everyone just survive..keep up the good work !!!! i also dont allow anyone under lvl 20 to be tossing nades if its there first wipe lol..to many nub teammates got me in the past with low stre tosses
one time I got the ultra medical key on interchange and went directly to the no bag exit hiding for 7 Minutes by the gas storage and heard a 3 man team running beneath my hiding place. I swear I never had such a strong heart bumping
*watches Pestily* Okay, hes gonna do a scav run without engaging much fights. Phew, finally i can learn. *Pestily kills pMC* WAIt, you werent supposed to do that.....i always die
godamnit. i literally learned and have been opened to a actual beneficial way to run raids lol. cuz i suck a shitton at pvp lmao this is excellent thank you so much father tarkov! my pistol runs last night for scavvy kills on customs got spicy and i made it out alive 4 outa 5 times. so. progress, and improvement all the same
when you got a labs keycard, you can go to labs in offline mode and learn fighting raiders. this is one of the best way to learn fighting, because they are a harder to fight than regular scavs. when you die you lose nothing, your keycard will stay in your pocket so you can run again and again. dont underestimate the offline mode!
Yeah I kinda think that's a bad idea but I honestly don't play it so maybe it is good for noobs. I've gone on a few Scav raids there and a couple PMC raids. It just seems like more Chads are gonna be there. I think Shoreline is the easiest to survive, *if you avoid resort.* I just do cache runs there a lot of times and I can extract 8-9/10 times probably. And I am total shit at the game.
i am speaking as a new player, interchange is more popular due to ease of navigation in my opinion. thank you for the videos making it more accessible for us noobs much love
@@VerrueckterKerl85 This is why I only play scav. At least whatever loot they get off me didn't come out of my own pocket. And on the off-chance I survive a raid, I make a nice profit.
@@BadTactics101 but i want to make progress with the main char too. thats why i play my pmc. scav run ok, but they get shit equip and, at least for now, no progress. last game: customs. looted some things, killed the scav boss with his toons at ZB1013, want to go because i was heavily wounded in that fight, guess what? a team of 2 assholes appeared. i could not run away because my left leg was 0, so i had to fight again vs. 2. killed 1, the other basterd shot me in the back. no loot (and i didnt even want the scav loot) the things in my gamma didnt count as „found in raid“ and my loadout gone again. and i bet those motherfucking assholes just waited until i finished the scavs, because they were really bad at shooting. i hope i meet those fuckers some day in RL. just to break some bones.
@@VerrueckterKerl85 Welcome to Tarkov. It wasn't meant to be easy. All you can do is learn. There is bugs and cheaters, sometimes you get the drop and get lucky. Next time a scav 1 taps you in the face with buckshot. It is glorious pain and I'm still hooked.
yeah especially nowadays..imo these kids have been programmed to expect immediate gratification..most games are designed to make even the worst players feel like their winning and have success from day 1..however playing a game like this definitely takes time, patience and commitment to improve but the reward and feeling when u achieve something is incredible

First encounter there, I would've died for sure. usually they just flip towards me and one-tap... until eft implements a proper matchmaker based on MMR, the game is unplayable for lower skill players
Agreed with this. new players shouldn't be getting matched with players 30+ levels higher with a fully kitted out Vector, M4 and Altyn. Players should fall under a level bracket or gear score bracket.
so you want this to turn into cold war? no think about the pro players. and no im not one i suck but thats what makes this game fun. I get lucky and one tap a lvl 30+ with my sks and get his m4a1. If you have a problem then run scav in factory and just rush extract
I'm neither new nor bad at Tarkov, but I watched the whole thing anyway because Pestily's making the best vids. Also, please put your recBats into your container. They're worth 20k for an ADAR barter at Skier LL1.

Thanks Pestily, you have done more for getting new players into this game and expanding the player base then anyone else I know. This game has went from a waste of my money to my favourite and most rewarding game thanks to your videos 👍
This is so useful for so many reasons. With everyone buying graphics cards and new PCs (just like I did) many of us can now play games that our old systems couldn't including Tarkov. I also appreciate that you showed a clean inventory like a new player would start. And the way you explained things as if actually talking to new people and the new experience instead of just tossing beginner tips hoping we'd be able to grab them. Having the beginning explanation with visual examples of what you're talking about is so good and finishing that first part of the video giving us the option to leave or stay to see you show examples in action. Showing your examples in action after that first part is that extra mile that makes this such an incredibly useful video. This is so well done on an "official" Tarkov game guide level status, thank you for doing this.
I came here to find a guide, and literally 1 minute before I loaded your page, you uploaded this. The universe wants me to absorb pest's knowledge!
Playing tarkov got me picking up random junk irl like "I can prob use these rusted screws for something.."
🤣🤣
llol
Got the game about a week ago. It's really an interesting game, with proper tension. Learned quite quickly to not play pmc, and just stick to scav. Better to have a chance of some profit, instead of handing out free loot to others at my own expense.
And I never engage, unless shot at first. I doubt I will ever see level 10, but I still enjoy the game!
Level 10 yet?
@@willfowler8540 😂
How you doing now?
I'd really recommend spending an extra 3k on a balaclava for the loadout. Your face is really easy to be seen anywhere in the map so it's totally worth it.
"No ones gonna pick up an sks like that"
The people you made this video for will. 🤣
But they won't be able to get it in the first place ;)
sks found in raid are worht about 40k
the sks itself is 25k ish on flea (atleast yesterday) and the internal 10 round mag is 10 to 15k
i took every single sks out of a raid that was found in raid and made about 300k on a factory run
and i found an rbrs key on a scav which is worth 300k in it self and i found a bitcoin that raid and some other shit
came out of factory with 600k profit
and i didnt even kill anyone
@@QckSGaming that's what you think. If someone is struggling that much then they're living rat life.
They will crawl out of a bathroom stall with 10 minutes left in the raid and sweep the floors with the scav. 🤣

So I have had this game since version .05 over 3 years ago and I’ve only put in maybe 30 hours total in that time throughout the multiple wipes. I’ve always tried, but could never seem to find the right way to start in the beginning and would get so unmotivated to try. It’s caused me to lose the want to play a game that I’ve wanted to learn for so long. This video explaining this has made me realize a lot of simple things that noob players like me probably never realized. Don’t worry about quests. Just that realization honestly makes it so much easier to focus on the goal of just survive. Thank you pestily for this video, it gave me a want to pick up this game again and try to make it far in this wipe/patch. I can’t say I will do great, but I at least have an idea on what to do to make it past the early game.
"You almost always get your PACA back from insurance:
My poor ass whos insured his PACA over 20 times now and have only gotten it back twice:
You have to be dying to naked rats.
Scavs have better armor 9/10 times especially this wipe.
Yeah I learned that the hard way after taking this guy's advice. He constantly says "don't worry about it as long as it's insured no one will pick ____ up" and it couldn't be a bigger lie. People take all kinds of shit all the time. Nothing is safe. Not even noob tier 1 armor or a basic starter pistol. Dropping anything is a complete gamble.
I suspect it gets used for aramids in the hideout. Considering you can exchange that for either the slick or a lvl 5 helmet and can be used to make a lvl3 helmet, and gives points for crafting skill....yeah, that PACA wont come back.

Rubles are rubles.
An advice for scav runs on interchange: pay attention to when you spawn, the raid starts at 45 minutes, if you spawn with 37+ minutes remaining rush the tech stores, do not bother with texo and techlight tho, since pmcs and other player scavs will be there, loot rasmussen, german and the other tech store (I can't remember the name) and look for gpus or tetrizes, if you find one, extract, if you spawn with 30 or less minutes remaining, loot oli or idea and then extract, if you spawn in the middle of those two, it's your choise if you want to risk it trying to loot the tech stores or if you want to just loot oli or idea, it depends on how many gunshots you hear and on what you have, personally if I do not have anything and I do not hear too many gunshots, or if I hear a lot of gunshots in the same place (4 to 5 different guns) I will try to rush the tech stores that are the furthest away from the gunshots and then extract if I find something.
Almost every time I spawn 37+ minutes in I'm able to find a tetriz or a gpu, scaving on interchange is a really great way to make money and I couldn't recommend it more.
I cannot tell you how much this has helped me being a new player ! Thankyou for the advice and I will be watching watching more of your YT and twitch to learn more !
Perfect video for a new player (myself) who has been struggling for the past couple days trying to learn with minimal research. Best and worst part about this game is the risk/reward system. It's nice to see that you can still die and make progress. Thank you for your content, looking forward to more.
Pestly, mate, not only did you just help a brand new player find his feet, you help me gain the confidence to make some risky runs again. Ty~
third wipe player here, still watching these tutorials, thank you Pestily !
man i got over 200 hours and have never survived a pmc raid at any point ever
literally reached like lvl 32 last wipe without a single pmc extract and it's extremely discouraging
@@cake2531thats rough buddy
@@cake2531 dying is usual. However I find it extremely hard to believe that you didn’t make out a single PMC raid. You need to work on positioning and stuff if your really dying that much. Learn from your deaths.
@@eatyourvegetables1449 nah i quit the game, it's just too hardcore for me unfortunately
wanted to like it but i'm not good enough and that's fine ig
I would point out that at 27:41 when Pest notices the cache is looted, also take note it was still open. Most containers will close with time, meaning the person who looted that one could be relatively close. Pest did hear the guy but because he was focusing on teaching, he didn't really check around for the guy like he normally would have. Trust little indicators like that when you see them in the game world. The Interchange cache route is popular because it is the most linear cache route of any map making it the easiest to learn and run. Great video.
A bit of a pro-tip with the SKS is to take the rear sight off. The aim point on the front site is still accurate and it makes it easier to hit follow-up shots.
How do you take the rear sight off?
@@ioletsgoflare4857 you can inspect the gun and then view the gun parts. Then you can click on the gun parts and hit uninstall. I think that’s how you do it

"didn´t do any crazy" - Me watching: Wow crazy he actually kills players with that sks
The most important thing you showed imo is that even if you die you can come out on top and its not that big of a deal. I always thought dying was no matter what punishing and set you back but here you show that death is not always that bad. Go in cheap, loot up, don't take death too seriously. Good stuff here.
"Gonna be avoiding fights"

Thats how the start of most matches go
@@crashbandit7270 youre not kiddin. Every fucking map, im in a fight within 20 seconds. Customs, weve had multiple times where a 3 and two 4 man squads all spawn near trailer park and we just spend the first 20 mins of a raid fighting and flanking. shits stupid
Huge ass map of woods now and within seconds already in a gun fight the devs need to do a better job with spawns especially when ppl are low lvl
@@JoshuaDay0550 i always spawn on customs and get a headshot from wherever. often with pistoles. mostly right after i spawn.
or i just sit somewhere and scratch my balls, till someone littarly sprints up to me and kills me. i made no sound or anything, often also players and no scavs. ( my plan is to wait, till players killed each other and only a bunch of skavs are over so i can try to get my mission done, well, dont works for me)
... i just hate customs. i need to kill scavs there but i cant find scavs... i always get fucked by players
pretty frustrating if youre new to the game. cause as far as i learned, its not my skill. its my spawn location. xD
idk why but these tutorials are so cozy.. its like im not learning anything new but I still really enjoy this
Glad to see Pestily still making videos like this. When I was a wee little baby in Tarkov, Pestily was one of the only people willing to help new players, while also being entertaining to watch. Thanks for all your hard work.

Hot damn, I used to do stash runs when I was new to the game in order to farm money for containers and utility-type items (docs cases & other useful things), but seeing decent armor and other goodies come out of stashes in this vid and on streams, I WOULD'VE KILLED FOR THAT when I started. You new guys sure have it good with stashes now.
stashes had this loot table from the get-go
@@smilie-pm9gb The get go of what, this wipe? Sure. If you're talking about the last few wipes, you're incorrect. I've looted enough stashes and ratted around enough when I was new to know the things you get in stashes now is AMAZING compared to previously. I ain't new to the game, I can tell the difference bud xD
@@Kang_Ki_Hyeon well, i looted "decent armor and other goodies" from hidden stashes since they introduced them, so no, i am not incorrect ;-)
God damn it Pestily, now i'm going to run into other stash runners on interchange
already tons of videos on it tbh
that run has been known for ages
I do a modified run. I run the parking garage. Tons of weapon crates down there. And whatever stashes are on the side of the garage I exit at I check. Always worthwhile to look.
Your always helping the new guys and the community. Good on ya Pest.
Seeing the BTR emplacements makes me want a Squad map set in Tarkov.
I'm not a new player but I do suck, so here I am. Appreciate these videos man, good shit
Thanks pest, been on a 12 loss streak on customs trying to get my bronze watch. I’ll try these out to come outta my loss streak!
Just start match, hide in bush, watch yt for 35 minutes, last 10 minutes match go and do quest, run to extract. I guess that's much faster then not being able to extract for 12 times in a row :D. You can also simply go night raid, run from bush to bush and dont move when you hear footsteps.
need some help? I use discord.
the quest item is player side no need to rush to it, it will be there for you if you have the quest active, slow play it kill a couple of scavs loot a few stash's until late in the raid and then grab it.
I subbed to you as soon as you said exactly what key binds you pressed for every action. You are absolutely unmatched in how helpful your videos have been!
I wish I could ACTUALLY do a rat run without dying. That'd be nice
well, avoiding pmc spawns in first 5 minutes of raids and knowing where scavs spawn (both bot and players) will help you survive
Death by death you learn in this game bro
300hrs in-game, still shit
I can tell you have morals. If you want to be a rat get rid of them now.
Thank you for actually making a video about playstyle and stuff as a beginner... All the other guides were simply random tips and tricks.
all i do is scav runs. then when i die say "fuck this game" and log in the next day cause im bored
LMAO me too. I'm getting better, but I hate dying...and I'm a rat, not a run-gunner!

I started playing this game 3 days ago, can confirm I came up with that same interchange stash run myself with map genie. Love the content
Me: 400 hours in tarkov.
Also Me: Watches How to raid videos.
i got 1k hrs and still have much to learn, like i dont really know interchange for some reason, i dont like that map...it feels like playing minesweeper
Pestily: we gonna avoid the contested areas (goes to bunker)
Pestily: okay after killing that player we just gonna leave the bunker and take some hidden stashes (searches the bunker)
Pestily: okay learn the stash locations and avoid the highly contested area (forgets where the stash is and goes to marked circle)
You not listening to yourself is why I love ur raid series. Much love, and cant wait for season 3 raid series to start!
The amount of time he spent running directly along open roads and fields scares me.
I do it all the time it really works it's crazy
Note on looting XP: You get experience points (AND skill points) for searching containers AND looting gear. Even if you don't want some of the stuff you find, it's not a bad idea to loot it and immediately drop it, because each item will give you raid XP to help you cross the Run Through threshold faster. (Not only that, it levels up your Charisma skill, which is needed for a task.) Ctrl+M1 puts loot directly into your pack or rig without needing to drag it over, and hitting your Discard button (Delete by default, highly recommended to remap to H) will instantly drop the item without having to use the drag-down list. With those hotkeys, you can fill your inventory with garbage loot and throw it all away again in less than a second.
Thanks for the video, I'm stuck at level 8 and have only been playing Factory and Customs and feel like I've hit a brickwall on leveling and money making.
Reserve and the manhole extract is how I made most of my money in my first few weeks of Tarkov. Always a good start for new solo players.

Damn man. You saved my bacon. My "friends" tell me to focus on learning customs.. so ive never went to another map... @_@
Customs is pretty decent tho... ig I’m in ur same situation tho 😂 imma try to learn wood next
I learned on customs, and interchange. Don't ask me shit about any other map. I'm force teaching myself shoreline though.
Gotta be honest ally biggest raids have been woods and Customs, I've only done 38 pmc raids but so far I can move about Customs without having to think too hard. And it's a juicy loot central
It doesn’t help that all of your starting quests take you to customs
I've improved so much this raid! Solo player. Up from a 30% Survival rate to a 40%-45% Guides like this helped me so much!
They need to add kill cams but you can only view your kill cam after security level 3 and you will receive it in a message after the raid is over only
People that get to security level 3 probably don't give a shit about watching them xD
@@TheFatesBack Trust me, we do
I started with Operator Drewski but Pestily definitely stole my heart. Aside from that weird stuff genuinely Pestily got me excited to play... I wasn’t disappointed. I was expecting punishment but boy I didn’t think I was going to receive this much lol After taking a week to figure out the controls and map it to my controller, learn the basics and a couple maps and their extract (which I failed to an extent) I went online. I did okay but no extractions. I extracted in my 3rd. Then I proceeded to die about 6 -8 times lol I was so mad searching how EFT is bad. But I thought of what Pestily and what other new and veteran players are saying. I love what this game is supposed to be. I will get better and well I ended up making baby steps. I know I can better since everyone seems to have started out rough. What makes this game good is that all players continue to push through the hard times and end up becoming better. And those who don’t honestly are the real mvps. Those who continue to play despite the hardships are better players than most. It’s tough to fight with the big dogs but it’s even tougher to continue fighting despite how much we lose. I will lose a lot and I’m okay. I will learn and no matter what I’ve got more balls to walk into this nightmare lol

Thank you so much for this video, this was SO incredibly helpful for me as a new player.
“4 minutes and 15 minutes left to extract.”
when you got a labs keycard, you can go to labs in offline mode and learn fighting raiders. this is one of the best way to learn fighting, because they are a harder to fight than regular scavs. when you die you lose nothing, your keycard will stay in your pocket so you can run again and again. dont underestimate the offline mode!
Woah thanks cool idea!!
@@SouthPortlandKK glad if I could help :D
Reserve doesn't seem like the best place trying to survive IMO lol.
Yeah I kinda think that's a bad idea but I honestly don't play it so maybe it is good for noobs. I've gone on a few Scav raids there and a couple PMC raids. It just seems like more Chads are gonna be there.
I think Shoreline is the easiest to survive, *if you avoid resort.* I just do cache runs there a lot of times and I can extract 8-9/10 times probably. And I am total shit at the game.
I did night raids on reserv with just a rigg. Rat tactics got me 10 rounds survived with a shit ton of profit.
Tfw learned customs and better at customs now but not reserve

As a almost strictly R6 siege player who just started play escape from tarkov (I almost ever actually escape) this is the video I needed
First encounter there, I would've died for sure. usually they just flip towards me and one-tap... until eft implements a proper matchmaker based on MMR, the game is unplayable for lower skill players
Agreed with this. new players shouldn't be getting matched with players 30+ levels higher with a fully kitted out Vector, M4 and Altyn. Players should fall under a level bracket or gear score bracket.
so you want this to turn into cold war? no think about the pro players. and no im not one i suck but thats what makes this game fun. I get lucky and one tap a lvl 30+ with my sks and get his m4a1. If you have a problem then run scav in factory and just rush extract
I'm neither new nor bad at Tarkov, but I watched the whole thing anyway because Pestily's making the best vids. Also, please put your recBats into your container. They're worth 20k for an ADAR barter at Skier LL1.
