Game notes for my endeavours in Escape from Tarkov

First raid EVER and I survived

Preface

I bought Escapr from Tarkov(EFT) on january 28. 2022 because I needed something to waste my sparetime on... time will tell if I get hooked.

This page is intended as my own personal reference card to stuff I probably will forget if I do not write it down somewhere :-D

Advice i found on the Intarwebz

Beginner advice

• Buy a cheap weapon and nothing else and go to shoreline, go to the sniper rock and kill the 1-2 sniper scavs that spawn there - then check YouTube for the tutorial for how to get on top of the rock to loot them. They always have either a scoped Mosin or sks and semi decent loot for a new player.
• Extract at path to lighthouse, or road to customs
• Rinse and repeat for ez loot

Errors

Stuck on "Awaiting session start"

Stuck on "Awaiting session start" should be exclusively on your scav ; if you're stuck on "Awaiting session start" specifically for more than 5 minutes ; it's a good indicator that you're desynced and need to Alt+F4 and restart.
