I am pleased to present to the community my finalized Escape from Tarkov guide! It is fully up to date with the latest patch (12.10.2) as of 6/19/21. I have worked extensively with members from the community to insure that the advice given is still accurate and relevant to newer players to adequately prepare them to go into raids and escape with loot.
If you have any issues with formatting, use Chrome or download the PDF! Thanks for reading!
I am also pleased to announce that I will be working on two more guides: an Intermediate guide, which will likely not be as long, which will target advanced users and show them how to win a gunfight and how to traverse maps. It will likely include:
- Map traversal tips: How/where to jump to traverse terrain quickly without causing fractures/black legs
- Map Migration Routes: Where and how PMCs spawn and where they tend to move, common sight lines for first contact.
- Combat: Risk vs Reward assessments, how to recognize what gun is being fired, When to push vs hold an angle.
- Quest/Hideout Prioritization: Exact routes to run to best complete quests and hideout for optimal setup to generate profit via Hideout crafting at different stages of the wipe as well as via bitcoin/scav case, using best available information.
My second 'guide' will in fact be this one, but summarized in (hopefully) 10 minutes or less via youtube. It is intended to be a high-speed crash course of what to buy and what to build for brand-new players about to start their first raid so they avoid taking/using/wasting money on horrible or useless gear. I am looking for a competent person to assist me in creating the video. If you are interested, send me a DM.
