Just found my GPSA on my third labs raid ever, and extracted it. Looked up this guide halfway through the raid to figure out where to extract. Thanks so much pest

Been smashing it with this guide Black room has 25 stims easy And I’d say LEDX every 5 raids This wipe 2 times 2x LEDX in black room 🔥 Also the circle room with cats in 2nd floor with the round table Very consistent ledx Yellow keycard room Best kappa item room for me this wipe 🔥

Thank you. Walking around and explaining the map from a starting point really helps me map the whole place out in my brain, and the mention of LEDX spawns and stuff like that is really helpful, this is the guide I was looking for so thank you man

Narpha, don't burn out love! You've been fukken KILLING IT on the youtube front. Thanks for the content

Do appreciate these guides, it's been a good 5 or so years, but the originals taught me how to play the game.

Doesnt a black keycard span at 4:18 at the table where the pcs are under or maybe where he said there is the key.

One spot Pestily didn't mention was the Valuable loot spawn outside of the more south dark offices (if you're looking at a map) on the white boxes (going towards the stairs). It could also be GPSA and MCCs.

Labs labs labs!! 4 wipes in barely done 5 raids here

forgot to mention the gold spawn next to dark office, its one of the best

I played the Labs for the first time today and from what I see everyone just activate their nearest extract and just camp there for anyone to come. And when I tried to extract fighting off the raiders they just killed me (I was out of stamina). Not a good impression but I guess it's another learning curve.

Fair amount of cheaters on labs, then there are plenty of people who play nothing but labs and farm it all day long and know every nook and cranny. It is safer to wait a while and let people kill each other, but that obviously means the popular loot locations will be cleaned.

yes yes yes, now there will be more bots like me in labs to replace some of the absolute lunatics and cheaters

Best map by far in the game if you enjoy buying cheeto's stocks

Just wondering, how does the Tarkov community decide what the median value of an item is? 60 million for the labs keys means even with consistent volume of loot per run it will take you forever to pay 1 off if you buy one. The marked keys seem to be perfectly reasonable in price tag. You usually pay it off pretty quickly (assuming you do not die a lot.) What is weird is the card to even access labs is only 150-200k. 200k to access ALL of labs besides those rooms. Is the value just based on the rarity of the keycards? I know prices will change as wipes progress, same as any MMO style auction house system, but seems high just to be high. Then again I have no idea what the average amount of money most Tarkov players sit on throughout a wipe. Have not been able to enjoy Tarkov LIVE because of performance issues despite my PC apparently being above the recommended specs they have posted. Firefights tank my FPS so badly that I am certain to die. Any optic that is not just red dot style utterly decimates my FPS and freezes me in place for a few seconds. Streets of Tarkov does not even need mentioning lmao. I am sure even you guys with far beefier PCs than mine even struggle with it. I play games that have FAR higher recommended specs for the most part fine, never ideal, but there are all playable. They desperately need to just have a wipe be about just making large optimization progress or a mid wipe patch. Everyone benefits from something like that. People with low to mid tier rigs like mine and the chad rigs will actually be able to perform at a level that they should for the investment people put into there machines.

The community doesn't actively decide on the price of these items. It's a matter of supply and demand and the price will eventually gravitate towards a certain price point.

@umbrella4407

4 ай бұрын

The colored keycards have ludicrously small chance of spawning and are some of the rarest items in the game, while the regular access keycard is easy to get in comparison. The colored cards are also unlimited use (sanitar card with blue smudge not included). The regular access card is just a one-time entry ticket that is sold by therapist for ~160k as well, which helps stabilize the price around that range. People want the colored keycards because they will only need to buy them once and they can farm the rest of the wipe.

when u do walkthroughs like this maybe bring a helmet with a flashlight so we can see what ur looking at xd

museum guide voice kicked in lol

Why does nobody ever use helmet flashlights!? Lol would have been so clutch in this video, labs has so many dark corners

There 2 things to keep in mind before going to labs. 1.There are alot of cheaters in this map regardless of wipe state (early , mid , late) especially in Asia server I've only played 6 labs raids this wipe, 5 of which got blatant cheaters in and 1 which is an empty raid. 2.Repeat the first one.

I have 4k hours and I still barely know labs.

I love watching these videos, however I don't think these maps guides are super useful. They're kinda rushed and not really structured. If I was a total beginner I wouldn't really be helped by this. I think a better way to do this would be to first have a segment detailing all the extracts, then a segment detailing all the good loot spots. Lastly I would go over the flow of the map, where players spawn, where raiders spawn, etcetera. It would probably be a longer video then, maybe even every segment should have its own video. But only then I would consider it an "ultimate" guide. Now the video is all over the place. Because I am somewhat familiar with the map I got some good loot spots out of this video, but that's only because I recognize some parts of the map.
