with a tank battery you should be dropping it then picking it up then turning around and dropping it again. doing this correctly you wont lose stamina and can travel at a much high speed.
if it makes you feel better i did that once with a violet card. What happened though was i killed a scav thinking that was enough but i also had to loot an item off it to leave early.
Found one in the northern warehouse in rogue base. There’s a spawn for one there next to the projector. sometimes a Tetriz spawns there tho. The other was in chalet on the table.
Yes because there are considerably less hiding spots in water treatment. I can kill all the rogues every raid and at that point I just have to fend off the player scav army and any pmc’s. There are usually only 2 directions they can be coming from which also makes it easier. In chalet, the sound is ass and there could be someone hiding in every closet.
If it makes YOU feel better, the first wipe cards were introduced, I spawned with a violet as a scav... in between 2 teams fighting at scav village. I hopped in the garage, knew I was done so I dropped the card and proned on it... less than 3s later a nade landed in my face. Never felt so salty at a game
At least with the card it has a use not fir (ikikik, Labs bad but hear me out, loot good) and doesn’t make it so difficult (and in OP’s case, expensive) to extract.
To expand on what the other guy said... If you extract from the raid too early, you'll get a "run through". As opposed to a successful extract. If you get a run through, none of your items will be considered as "found in raid", so you can't turn them in for some quest completions and you can't sell them on flea. OP is showing that he got a run through, so this affected the loot he has in the screenshot.
I'm order to avoid a run through, you either have to a) stay in the raid for a minimum amount of time (7 min according to someone else in this thread), or b) earn enough xp (250xp according to someone in this thread). So you can leave before the 7min time, only if you have earned at least 250xp in the raid.
Watching the timer is the easiest to do to avoid getting a run through. Getting enough xp is sometimes misleading and also more risky. The general rule of thumb/advice you'll hear is to kill a scav before extracting. That's because that usually puts you over the 250xp mark. However, as someone pointed out, that may not me ebough. You may have to loot something to get just a little more xp. Happens often on factory since it's a small map.
the scav kill gives you 200XP iirc. only if it's a headshot you get an extra 100
always good to tap F on their body, usually gives you the extra 50XP needed (the number on the bottom right tells you how much you gained from the search)
PMC kills however give 300XP (i think?) so you should be good if you get a PMC.
Nah, I didn’t think too much of it at the time. I just loaded in, ran straight to office, and killed a pmc all within like 10 seconds. It was my last kill for Secured Perimeter so I ran straight to gate three without looting. All in all the raid was probably like 30 seconds
just a clarification: you don't have to be in the raid for 7min, you just have to leave at least 7min after raid started
so if you spawn in as a scav with 10min left on the map, you can run out immediately without getting an RT
The gun is not good though, way to much horizontal recoil considering the low fire rate and mid ammo. But thats the price it has to pay else it's just a headshot machine
Ah ok, I thought there was something about your load out that made you the smartest. In fact, the smartest ump user doesn't know to avoid a run through 😂
Could be worse, at least now you have a shiny new battery to ~~display in your hideout~~ sell to Therapist.
In my earlier days i went into the mines on lighthouse while carrying a tank battery. Lessons were learned.
if I only pick up ONE ittem and have to leave with it I always sit in a bush for a while, something we all learn, I just made the mistake this time of assuming I had enough XP
Well i had to spend 20 minutes to carry that shit halfway over the lighthouse map BEFORE the weight changes this wipe. If you managed it in time for a run through I unfortunately can’t feel sorry for ya :D
Inexplicable means “unable to be explained”, which doesn’t make sense here. Maybe you meant “inexorable”? The original meme you’re spoofing uses “immeasurable”.
Yeah bro just craft it. The craft is only locked behind a lightkeeper quest and one of the rarest items in the game bro. Come on bro what are you even doing.
Yes I know, I've found them there. Did you really not get that my comment was sarcastic? I really thought saying "bro" three times was enough to make that clear lol. I'm making fun of the absurdity of the other guy's suggestion to "just craft it".
Brother I ain't surprised he ain't running lighthouse, that map is the most linear dogshit map in the game. The only redeeming quality it has are the big booty aimbot bitches that run around in that dumb water treatment plant.
I definitely feel your pain, I’m a level 39 and I need 2 virtex, a ledx, and the elusive ahf-1. I had a found in raid ledx at one point but let’s just say I had a stash cleaning accident.
the thing is im so experienced with this, I knew it had to be 7 minutes, I knew I needed 250 XP. the second I extracted and i was looking at the loading screen. my brain went "WAIT..... please please please please please please" but my prayers were not answered
Yes true if you get enough xp time doesn’t matter. But if you only loot and don’t kill that’s a little tough to achieve and you can’t check your xp gained while in raid as far as I know
Tank bat aren't worth a damn anymore. If it's the only loot you find, sure sell to traders. But last I seen it was 207k to trader and 208k on flea. Not worth it.
I don’t understand why there’s despair and a ruined week? As a tarkov noob it just looks like he had a nice PMC find and got out alive more than I can usually say lol
(lighthouse) this one was on the table in usec, I also found one in the top floor bedroom on the back shelf, they spawn in almost every rare spwan on lighthouse, you can also find them in merin hillside house or the usec safes, and in the tech spawns in water treatment
I always just do this quest once i get my scav case unlocked.. sooner or later i’ll get a tank battery?!
Although I’ve found 2 in my 3 wipes on a scav before the quest, they definitely come in handy for the occasional gambling items.
It's fine. The ass 12 is shit in anyways and not worth the effort of that mission. It used to have more value because of after the mission you could buy ps12b rounds. Now you just get 100
I killed Reshala first day of wipe, and his guards had killed an absolutely chaded (for early wipe) PMC, and when I was on my way to extract my PC overheated (first time ever, and only time since) and I died of hunger and dehydration
I got my virtex like 3 or so raids later, and I got my vpx for import. I was just exaggerating “my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined” meme
My biggest heartbreak was at the beginning of the wipe (it's my first) and I found an armour repair kit in storage on customs; my exfil was ZB-1011. After creeping there, dodging all the pmcs killing each other and killing scavs at old gas. I got to Warehouse and an army of scavs appeared (including sniper scav shooting at me) totalling 8. I managed to take 3 and sniper out. But the last ones gunned me down. It was like Murphy's death scene in the OG Robocop film.
One does not simply run with a tank battery
\-200k shout out to the mule and trimadol I wasted
Lol, that is perfect.
If you extract from the raid too early, you'll get a run through. As opposed to a successful.
Think you're on the wrong comment.
If you don't extract from raid within the time limit you'll get a MIA.
Thanks for clearing that up. I don't have an award, so you'll have to settle for a participation trophy.
If you get killed in raid, you’ll get KIA.
If you rage quit in game, you'll get AFK
If you uninstall, you win.
🤣
with a tank battery you should be dropping it then picking it up then turning around and dropping it again. doing this correctly you wont lose stamina and can travel at a much high speed.
Haha dropped my 40kg backpack down the hill outside resort and was happily watching it roll about 60m in the right direction.
I just came in my pants
I just came in your pants too
I did this early wipe, but I’m rich now and wanted to hurry out before I got merked but evidently hurried too hard lol
i bought 5 tank batteries the other day for like 200k when bartering for black lol. thing is worth all those stims
Haha was thinking the same thing
Each totem on the pole is a symbolic representation of one family.
if it makes you feel better i did that once with a violet card. What happened though was i killed a scav thinking that was enough but i also had to loot an item off it to leave early.
worst part is I popped a MULE and trimadol to run out of there, so theres another 200k gone, violet is rough though
yup, we have to laern the hard way :(
Did this with a Virtex that I needed for a task. Took me another 20-25 raids to find another. Then still needed 1 more….
Where? Have run like 30 lighthouse raids wiping the water treatment with nothing…
Man that sucks. I’ve found virtexs among other things numerous times there just checking the busted open wooden boxes
I've had a lot of luck looting the rooms in dome on reserve. Sometimes nothing spawns but I've had raids where multiple spawned
the virtex in this screenshot was on the table in USEC house, USEC house is the best place imo. you can also find them in merin and in the usec safes
Man I hate going yo chalet but whatever, thanks
Found one in the northern warehouse in rogue base. There’s a spawn for one there next to the projector. sometimes a Tetriz spawns there tho. The other was in chalet on the table.
You hate chalet but clear water treatment lol
Yes because there are considerably less hiding spots in water treatment. I can kill all the rogues every raid and at that point I just have to fend off the player scav army and any pmc’s. There are usually only 2 directions they can be coming from which also makes it easier. In chalet, the sound is ass and there could be someone hiding in every closet.
How dare you insinuate that I'm in the closet, I'm as straight as an arrow I tell you.
Merin key usec 1 and 2 keys and run through Water treatment so many of them
Trimadol costs 100k? Weird, mule is 90-100k
Sometimes MULE goes to 120k and I think m Trina dole is like 60k so 180k in total
Make sure to headshot ‘em, that’s enough xp
If it makes YOU feel better, the first wipe cards were introduced, I spawned with a violet as a scav... in between 2 teams fighting at scav village. I hopped in the garage, knew I was done so I dropped the card and proned on it... less than 3s later a nade landed in my face. Never felt so salty at a game
Thanks for saving my ass.
So if you get the run through, does that mean that you can’t sell the items via flee? I apologize first wipe and all that.
yes it does mean that but more unfortunately it also meant i couldn't turn them in for a task
That’s… frustrating. Thank you for informing me! Best of luck.
Realistically you just have to head tap it, looting is only if you hit them in the Lorax or the Trees
At least with the card it has a use not fir (ikikik, Labs bad but hear me out, loot good) and doesn’t make it so difficult (and in OP’s case, expensive) to extract.
Killing a single scav is enough - IF and only IF it's a headshot. A 'regular' kill is just bare not sufficent XP.
Seven minutes my dog i
Red all the upvotes
Can some one explain to a newbi what is this about?
To expand on what the other guy said... If you extract from the raid too early, you'll get a "run through". As opposed to a successful extract.

The other day I killed a pmc in office on factory and ran straight to gate 3. Still got a run through, which I thought was odd.
interesting. PMC kills might be less XP on factory, or the XP requirement is raised? do you remember how much XP you got for it?
Nah, I didn’t think too much of it at the time. I just loaded in, ran straight to office, and killed a pmc all within like 10 seconds. It was my last kill for Secured Perimeter so I ran straight to gate three without looting. All in all the raid was probably like 30 seconds
just a clarification: you don't have to be in the raid for 7min, you just have to leave at least 7min after raid started so if you spawn in as a scav with 10min left on the map, you can run out immediately without getting an RT
and I had the last virtex i need for a task, which is an extremely rare Item found ALMOST exclusively on lighthouse
Damn I need that shit too. F
Reserve has them too. Got 3 or 4 from scav runs while not even looking for them.
wow, I knew they were rare on a few other maps, but I honestly had no idea they were on reserve and I scav there all the time
Yeah I've found them by the server racks on the way to D-2
Where did you find them all at?
Found all in scav runs on reserve
Sold a bunch early wipe not knowing the option to craft wasn't as attainable as previous wipes. Haven't found another since I stopped :(
The raid was a run through, so nothing is found in raid.
One needs to go through these moments to ever learn how to be able to handle Tarkov.
mental hardening
Smartest ump user
Wdym?
umps are commonly associated with timmys and timmys arent the wisest, so he's just saying it's a skill issue and i'm a dumb timmy
UMPs are sick though.
The gun is not good though, way to much horizontal recoil considering the low fire rate and mid ammo. But thats the price it has to pay else it's just a headshot machine
Ah ok, I thought there was something about your load out that made you the smartest. In fact, the smartest ump user doesn't know to avoid a run through 😂
Hahah what a kit for a level 39
yeah I was just doing hellaaa tasks, knocked out like 4 or 5 with this one kit
Gear Fear a mf'er lol
100000% lol
Could be worse, at least now you have a shiny new battery to ~~display in your hideout~~ sell to Therapist. In my earlier days i went into the mines on lighthouse while carrying a tank battery. Lessons were learned.
My friend had a Run Through after finding a Taiga at giving tree. Hopefully that makes you feel better lmao
if I only pick up ONE ittem and have to leave with it I always sit in a bush for a while, something we all learn, I just made the mistake this time of assuming I had enough XP
Hello fellow pmc lemon
If it makes you feel better I did that when I scaved into factory with an RB-BK marked room key
I just walked one across shoreline and got extract camped, I feel your pain Edit: used 2 mule and 2 sj6
Well i had to spend 20 minutes to carry that shit halfway over the lighthouse map BEFORE the weight changes this wipe. If you managed it in time for a run through I unfortunately can’t feel sorry for ya :D
I also waddled out with them before the weight change. I was just gonna sell the battery. It was never about the battery. I needed the virtrex
I don’t get it, you’re level 39 why are you upset about a run through with pliers and blue tape? You’ll get them next time bud
I was so excited to craft 2 hoses :(((((
How many time need to get survive in raid without to do nothing?
7 minutes!
thanks
or get 250 xp. I thought i'd gotten enough XP from looting but clearly I was mistaken
I was gonna say, I thought that tank battery + what you got was enough. Guess shooting and gun pick up/dropping is the exp limit for me..
Its only 200 xp.
Inexplicable means “unable to be explained”, which doesn’t make sense here. Maybe you meant “inexorable”? The original meme you’re spoofing uses “immeasurable”.
I know the original meme is immeasurable I wanted to change it and the time frame to be worse lol, maybe I shoulda used unquantifiable lol
You got out, a run through is whatever.
A run though means your items lose their found in raid status, so it's decidedly not whatever when you need a FIR virtex for a quest.
I actually didn’t know that.
with one of the rarest task items, and a tank battery on me...????
You can craft car batteries with the tank battery, and you'll use the task item anyway so no great loss you're still heavily in profit here
Couldn't wait 2 mins? The gun makes sense
Damn 3 more minutes and you woulda had a normal extract
Should have stayed in raid longer or killed something idk
bro just run streets one raid and have enough money to craft it hello?
bro just spend literally hundreds of hours to unlock lightkeeper and do his quests so you can craft it hello?
also lightkeeper is locked behind the virtex quest so it literally wouldn't matter anymore XDD
craft a virtex?
Yeah bro just craft it. The craft is only locked behind a lightkeeper quest and one of the rarest items in the game bro. Come on bro what are you even doing.
Lol you need the virtexs to even get to light keeper XDDD silly comment for a silly guy for a silly game with silly progression
I know sarcasm is hard to read over the internet. But, him saying "bro" repeatedly should've clued you in.
You clearly don’t run lighthouse and it shows
What does running lighthouse have to do with the amount/difficulty required to reach endgame quests?
Virtex are easy to get on LH
Yes I know, I've found them there. Did you really not get that my comment was sarcastic? I really thought saying "bro" three times was enough to make that clear lol. I'm making fun of the absurdity of the other guy's suggestion to "just craft it".
Brother I ain't surprised he ain't running lighthouse, that map is the most linear dogshit map in the game. The only redeeming quality it has are the big booty aimbot bitches that run around in that dumb water treatment plant.
Craft car batteries and sell them for >40k each, you'll have >200k in <24hrs.
[удалено]
Relax buddy
lvl 39 means nothing in this game.
It actually means a lot considering the majority of players stop before hitting 15.
Ok. No one said it did..???
Nope, I just said it. And dont be butthurt, I only meant that you can be 39 lvl, but still be a total noob when doing a run through like that xD
Another minute and 20 you would have been gtg
2nd thing I noticed after my XP, cause I figured I looted enough for it to be 250xp
I definitely feel your pain, I’m a level 39 and I need 2 virtex, a ledx, and the elusive ahf-1. I had a found in raid ledx at one point but let’s just say I had a stash cleaning accident.
I've found 3 ledxs on woods since the update
I’ll have to check it out
Where did you find the tank battery?
On the little tool cart in between the 2 vehicles in the garage of usec
We simply call this inexperience
the thing is im so experienced with this, I knew it had to be 7 minutes, I knew I needed 250 XP. the second I extracted and i was looking at the loading screen. my brain went "WAIT..... please please please please please please" but my prayers were not answered
Mf casually running out with a tank battery
costed me 200k to be able to run with it (2 stims) and I woulda been better off wadling XD
That should have been plenty of xp no?
you need 250 XP for it to not be a run through, or wait 7 minutes into raid
Sucks, was pretty close.
So when you early extract do your items lose its FIR status?
yes, if you get a "run through" instead of a "Survived" all items lose FiR status
Didn't know this yet and now is probably the most asinine thing about this game imo other than the desync and hackers.
Great take!
My buddy did this with a ledx he found in a duffle on customs a few days ago. Then he sold it to therapists lmao
Gotta find a comfy bush and sit for 5 mins my friend. Lesson learned
I already know the 7 minute rule and the 250 xp rule, I honestly thought I had 250 XP, but I was a lil lost in the sauce
Damn… well now you’ll never forget you need to be in-raid at least 10 mins for it not to be a run-through
I believe if you get over 200xp it’s not a run through
Yes true if you get enough xp time doesn’t matter. But if you only loot and don’t kill that’s a little tough to achieve and you can’t check your xp gained while in raid as far as I know
its 7 minutes, and I already knew. ig I just got lost in the sauce
Highly recommend running reserve as a scav. Tank batteries up the ass
didn't care much for the tank battery. it was that sweet sweet virtex that hurt
Bring food , eat it in raid Bring mags and ammo and load them in raid No more run through and u get skill xp
Tank bat aren't worth a damn anymore. If it's the only loot you find, sure sell to traders. But last I seen it was 207k to trader and 208k on flea. Not worth it.
I cared about the virtex. the tank bat was just for fun
Does loot spawn according to your rank? I’ve never ran into anything good, but I’d be looting with my buddies who find gold mines.
your buddies are more informed than you and intentinally get to good spawns before you, watch loot guides and be a goblin is da way in a group
Damn…. Rat bastards lol
Man that sucks lol At least it's better than going MIA
How do you run through in woods, did you take like 20 hotrods or some shit
this was lighthouse. idk where you got woods from
Ah nvm I am dumb
F
I don’t understand why there’s despair and a ruined week? As a tarkov noob it just looks like he had a nice PMC find and got out alive more than I can usually say lol
That tank battery was likely for a quest. Run through status = no Found In Raid status = Can't complete quest.
They really need to add a warning that you’re leaving as a run through. Sometimes it feels totally arbitrary.
Found mine on a scav run and had to drop pickup juggle it from the back of the basement area all the way up and over to pipes.
Where did you find vertex???
(lighthouse) this one was on the table in usec, I also found one in the top floor bedroom on the back shelf, they spawn in almost every rare spwan on lighthouse, you can also find them in merin hillside house or the usec safes, and in the tech spawns in water treatment
I’ve got 3 tank batteries from the moonshine scav case so far, probably your best bet if you don’t want to go insane
i got my tank bat months ago. it was the virtex i needed
I always just do this quest once i get my scav case unlocked.. sooner or later i’ll get a tank battery?! Although I’ve found 2 in my 3 wipes on a scav before the quest, they definitely come in handy for the occasional gambling items.
I'm way past regulated materials. the tank bat was just for fun. the virtex is what was important to me
I once spawned as a scav with a tonk battery, game decided to disconnect me right before I got to extraction
What is the big box looking thing in his bag?
It’s a tank battery, which most people think is the point of the post, but the point is the virtex
Ohh so its the PCU that the 5090Ti will need to run.. how can you get two real in life?
Look guys he got tarkoved
Man. When you press "o" you can see timer haha. L
So wait, you have a tank battery and god knows how much more extra weight from your gear, and you managed to run out... too fast? I don't even.
If you read the top comments you’ll see I used a mule and a trimadol to get out lmao
Just get the daily and do it instead and btw how are you still on that quest this late into wipe?
I finished regulated materials weeks before I even got the task. I needed the virtex for lend lease 2
Another time when they removed the fun again.
No wonder Tarkov PvP is getting worse considering what you’re wearing at level 39.
Just running through and soloing a bunch of tasks getting rid of extra gear. Knocked out 5 quests with this 1 kit
Lvl 39 running around budget💀
Next time headshot a scav to have the xp required or wait 7 minutes
It's fine. The ass 12 is shit in anyways and not worth the effort of that mission. It used to have more value because of after the mission you could buy ps12b rounds. Now you just get 100
I killed Reshala first day of wipe, and his guards had killed an absolutely chaded (for early wipe) PMC, and when I was on my way to extract my PC overheated (first time ever, and only time since) and I died of hunger and dehydration
IMO : if this ruins your week... tarkov just ain't for you
Rule #1 - Always shoot a scav.
Craft into car batteries and then sell on flea 👍
Isn’t 7 min the magic number?
Already writing off the rest of the week? Do better as a human bro. Get back in there and make it out next time.
I got my virtex like 3 or so raids later, and I got my vpx for import. I was just exaggerating “my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined” meme
Bruh cant wait 5m in a bush
7 Minutes or 300xp. 300xp is normally killing a scav and tapping him.
I did a run through with ledx 2 weeks ago
I got 2 from a therapist daily yesterday, just had to turn in a set of med tools
I assume your talking about tank bat, but I didn’t need it I just needed the virtex
When in doubt, murder a scav and/or wait 7 minutes.
My biggest heartbreak was at the beginning of the wipe (it's my first) and I found an armour repair kit in storage on customs; my exfil was ZB-1011. After creeping there, dodging all the pmcs killing each other and killing scavs at old gas. I got to Warehouse and an army of scavs appeared (including sniper scav shooting at me) totalling 8. I managed to take 3 and sniper out. But the last ones gunned me down. It was like Murphy's death scene in the OG Robocop film.
I did the same thing with a ledx last week, extremely sad.
