One thing I noticed recently - when you look at your Overall tab, select the "Scav" stats and where it says "Total value of items in stash" it will show the value of all the items currently on your next scav. This is a good way to see, before you go into a raid, if you're going to spawn with anything valuable. If the value is overe 200k, you've probably got a rare item, labs card or something similar.
@zaralass5274 yeah it's really good. I had one where total value was 220k but the scav had the little blue hiking backpack, bankrobber rig, no armour and a makarios, so I knew there must be some nice gear in the bag - turned out to be a lab's card and an ofz shell!
Hey Paul, no kidding, this video is top-notch, and it's been a long time coming. Thanks a bunch, man! I'm really into your content, especially those badass raids. But you know what would be cool? A compilation of the losses you've had. It adds that real touch, showing we're all human in this gaming world. Loving your work, keep it up, buddy
I have a video called the greatest tarkov player of all time and it's 13minutes straight of just deaths of mine. Here's the link ua-cam.com/video/sV7gln1Q8j4/v-deo.htmlsi=nPvTZyTEXS4iQnuD
A good tip with the sugar, eat them to 1 out of 70, and don't pay for food unless you run out of sugar, you can then use the sugar to craft moonshine and you save some money on food too. Hopefully BSG don't add diabetes to the game because my pmc lives off sugar and aquamari.
Pro tip: Pull your water filters out at 1/100 and use them to craft air filters. Also, early on, even if you lose some money, having your crafts going non stop will help a ton later on.
Nice video as always. Hideout, traders and flee is like 50% of the game for me, because I can't get around to playing in raid as much as I wish. They ad a good RP aspect to the game that really hits home, so these kinds of vidoes are always nice.
I did know alot of these tricks but the video was great. You have encouraged me to speed run my hideout. The dogtag bonus at the Hall of Fame is a really cool addition. Keep up the great vids
I used to focus on traders first but after i realized what the library did i decided to focus on hideout first this wipe, so I'm glad to see this video gives me motivation to get it finished this wipe.
Hey Paul, just wanted to say I'm very happy to see you still doing so well streaming, I remember those first drops when you exploded, wish you more success and hopefully more fun projects on the other channel!
Played on a standard account. It honestly makes you play a bit harder. You can't just hoard stuff. Either use it or sell it. But, upgrading to EOD was the best decision ever q.q gamma is so nice
Tarkovskaya vodka costs about 30k on the flea market, sometimes more, but mostly almost never not less than that. You can decide, to barter the moonshine for NVG or craft 10 bottles of Tarkovskaya with it. You need to have one big canister and one Moonshine to craft 10 bottles when I remember correctly. The ten bottles can have a ROI of 300k when sold on the flea market. The downsides are the market fees, depending on your rep and charisma - then the fact that you are using the big canister to craft vodka, rather than to craft water bottles. Still good money and gives you lots of freedom, can't really go broke with the Moonshine rig and Bitcoin farm.
As a veteran Tarkov player that’s been subbed for 5 years, I love your videos man. I learn tons from you where you could even start charging people if you wanted! Thanks for your hard work, and I think this is finally where Tarkov is gonna get its big break.
You are truly the best EFT gamer and quide! Thank you for this, been playing for about 900h over a few years (I know, not alot but I don't have the time to game everyday) and I'v learned alot under that time. But this helps alot! Espec the hideout info and what to focus on. Hope to see that 1mil subs this year.
Great video! If I can ask for one thing, I wish you also gave some tips to ppl who play less often (like me). What should I focus on? What can I skip? This kind of stuff :)
something you didnt specify is that the dogtags used for the skill buff in the hall of fame also includes kills by you as a player scav. something i figured out, may increase the value of dogtags on your scav runs :)
People don't believe me when I tell them that max crafting is just an absolute money print. I also use my sugars when I'm out of raid for food to 1/70 just like other items so there's an extra 15 to 20k in food saved you're making too
For Peacekeeper, Maybe the SIG Spear is a reward with one of those end-game quests? If i remember last time when Kappa first introduced the level cap, i believe each trader had some real high-end quest that provided a heap ton of XP to reach Kappa easier. I remember these quests being pretty high level locked though since they didn't really lock anything in terms of major progression.
CBJ on the .300 BO is no joke i killed a dude earlier who had one and 6 mags full of it! and MCX recoil feels incredible. as well as the better ammo shreds people
34:34 was he talking about all headsets in general or the comtacs specifically? Im pretty sure when he did the full test with all of them, there was pretty big distance hearing differences between a lot of the headsets.
The biggest hurdle in Tarkov after not playing for a couple wipes is that push to lvl 20 since at a certain point EVERYTHING in the hideout is locked behind Mechanic lvl 2
Fascinating. I can’t wait til the final game is released and I can actually make it to most of these features without a wipe destroying all my progress.
when you were talking about the graphics cards, you can also do that with sugar. it takes a little while for the cost to go up, but if you invest in just 1 holodilnic and save all your FIR sugars you make a good amount of money. early wipe they sell for like 10k or less. later on it hits 60k+
Another tip for new players ALWAYS use the sugar to restore your energy, but only use it down to one, THEN use it to craft the moonshine, with that you basically have unlimited food because I've never been able to eat it faster then I can craft it
3:10 another good one is buying power cords and making electrical wires and selling those on flea for 20k each. the power cords can buy from 20-30k each. so that's 80k profit on average. for 2 hour queue.
My very first wipe I did bitcoin farm as they where selling for 270k at that time. But that’s when they where priced off real world prices. Near the end of wipe they where all the way down below 100k. After that I never bothered with it. When they finally changed the prices I will now get bitcoin farm again. Last wipe I started two months late and stopped worrying about that stuff bring it would wipe soon and I had ton of money Anyways from scav raids.
Can’t believe no one is talking about shoreline the change is huge and hopefully for the better wonder how you think of it pestily I remember you always saying how much you hated that map before....
Lavatory is always my go to money maker. I find the stuff for the Grenade/Mag cases easily or they're cheap AF on Flea often and i always have one crafting. Basically keeps my money from ever going down. Both cases usually 200k minimum 🤷♂️ Pretty sure Grenade usually 3-400k usually.
ok we need some actual evidence that the most broken thing in the game(headsets) have been changed. I personally have not noticed any change but i havent tested anything either. This is a video that would do really well pest. And the community needs to know if it has been changed for real. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work
I’m also finding a shit load of thermite, water filters, and sugars. I am going to save every one of them like you’re as we all know shit will go up a lot soon.
I'd love to play EFT more, but the servers are either keep disconnecting, or I'll wait for 20 mins for a match, and nothing will happen. I'm playing from UAE, and they did add the dubai server, but rarely will u get in a match. I really hope the servers get better because the ping on server selection will say it's 130, but when u get in the game, it's actually 190. Really wanna play more, but the servers r fkn the experience for me.
I like the new compartmentalized bags they have been adding to help with balancing higher tier bags, but I think they could still improve on the backpack system a lot. What do you think of a weight efficiency/ergonomic value for bags? A value tied to each bag that adds a multiplier to the weight of everything inside of it. For example, a duffle bag might have pretty poor weight efficiency, so that car battery inside might weigh you down more. Most bags could probably be standard weight values, but then some bags might be far more ergonomic and have say 85-90% weight values because of it. This could add a lot more value to the compartment bags because they could bring down your overall weight as a trade off compared the giant bags with one huge compartment.
For anyone who's done a lot of hiking you would know that this is also an incredibly realistic system, which I think would entice BSG. I can't imagine trying to hike with all my gear in a gym bag.
i was playing a scav and had comtac 2s on, i was searching a crate and comtac 4s popped up and i threw them on, instantly i heard someone creepwalking outside, so if it doesnt boost range, it def makes things louder.
it's so nice of pestily to make a dedicated video for nikita to know what to nerf into the ground, pay attention guys, by the time you get to the point where pestily is you will know what not to do by watching this video
Dang! Important thing I didn't do it nab those gpu at beginning!! Agh all is good. I got pretty far as in not buying tons of hideout upgrades I found a lot of it
Hey Pest, do you remember/know the task you need to complete to get the Interceptor OTV Body Armor barter or purchase from Ragman? I've been searching high and low but can't seem to find it anywhere. Or anyone else for that matter that knows, thanks!
The testing you mentioned on the headsets; was this indoors or out? I replicated almost exactly the results from the headset sheet and all of the distances remain the same in Interchange. I saw Sheef and Willerz test this in Reserve provisions bunker which is pretty much the buggiest area of the game in terms of audio. Just curious where you got the data so I can try to reproduce.
So many items to invest in early on I just can't afford. I"m doing the opposite of this now. Basicall playing hardcore mode cuz I'm not doing quests. I get to flea and PK3 and then stop questing. Then I just use mid tier shit and hunt pmcs and collect my high tier shit in raid.
Just to clarify--you don't recommend using headsets at all anymore, or was it specifically the comtacs? Not needing headsets would be a pretty significant change!
I believe he referred to them all. As he hovered over 2s and said 4s. I can't tell if he means hearing distance is the same throughout all headphones or regardless of headphones. And I assume the heavy helms still muffle sound but clarification would be nice
@@hhhhorton6160 he def just meant the comtac 2's. if you cant tell a difference in the audio distance between no headphones and headphones thats a worry lmao
@@adam-z9e2j I agree but still a little unsure, he's definitely used the term comtacs to refer to all headsets in the past. Also, his PMC was not wearing a headset, and he had zero headsets in his stash. But this would definitely be a really significant change. Hopefully someone will do a bit of research to determine whether hearing distances with headsets really have changed!
One thing I noticed recently - when you look at your Overall tab, select the "Scav" stats and where it says "Total value of items in stash" it will show the value of all the items currently on your next scav.

If the value is overe 200k, you've probably got a rare item, labs card or something similar.
That's kind of huge for plannning whether to do a quick factory exit or to try to actually loot or hunt PMCs!
@zaralass5274 yeah it's really good. I had one where total value was 220k but the scav had the little blue hiking backpack, bankrobber rig, no armour and a makarios, so I knew there must be some nice gear in the bag - turned out to be a lab's card and an ofz shell!

A good tip with the sugar, eat them to 1 out of 70, and don't pay for food unless you run out of sugar, you can then use the sugar to craft moonshine and you save some money on food too. Hopefully BSG don't add diabetes to the game because my pmc lives off sugar and aquamari.
Lmaoo thanks
I suggest holding on to your fir ones to sell later and have a stock that you buy now and intend on using later. This way you both make and save money
that would be hilarious
the aquamari helps flush out the excess sugar
Eating it doesn’t remove the Found in raid status so people will still buy it for full price at 1/70 as well
Pro tip: Pull your water filters out at 1/100 and use them to craft air filters.
Also, early on, even if you lose some money, having your crafts going non stop will help a ton later on.
Love the guides, you can never make too many! Keep up the great work Paul!

Role play? Man going into raid is the RP
I did know alot of these tricks but the video was great. You have encouraged me to speed run my hideout. The dogtag bonus at the Hall of Fame is a really cool addition. Keep up the great vids
i've been playing for over 4 years on and off, and i still find these videos super helpful. Great work pest!
Bro I don’t even have the pocket watch.
I watched this yesterday and man has it helped out so much to speed up hideout progression.
I used to focus on traders first but after i realized what the library did i decided to focus on hideout first this wipe, so I'm glad to see this video gives me motivation to get it finished this wipe.
when do you unlock the bitcoin, moonshine, library etc? im lvl 35 lvl 3 traders and it still shows locked for me.
@@freddyescamilla3655 those all have separate hideout pieces that need to be built. moonshine-watercollector, bitcoin-intel, library-rest
Been around as much as I could during the subathon which was a blast and I can't wait for more content coming our way! enjoy your weekends Pest!
Hey Paul, just wanted to say I'm very happy to see you still doing so well streaming, I remember those first drops when you exploded, wish you more success and hopefully more fun projects on the other channel!

700k now
980k now @@flotta9833
1800hrs in and didnt think about buying graphics cards and water filters early. Thanks
Last wipe I got Hideout Management MAX. It was sick
