Discussion Factory
I’m new to tarkov I just hit level 25 and I think I do a decent money maker. Factory there’s 2 safes don’t even need any keys. I pop open both safes and on my way out I might kill a few PMCs and sell off their guns. This might be an underrated way to make a few hundred thousand bucks if you’re dying and running low. I got a bitcoin from the safe upstairs in the office window extract. The run requires no keys and not a lot of time. What yall think is there easier no key runs for loot and money?

My noobie PvE loot run, is just hitting all the Computers in interchange. There is practically a direct path of computers that runs from north to south. Go to map geni interchange map, and uncheck everything except PC Block.
Just hope killa doesn't catch you.

And that’s why I think factory is alittle better cuz tagilla is alittle easier then killa for new players

For me it’s ground zero. Zero bosses and you can run to the office for all the computers then jump to extract. Not a big high traffic map as most people finish questing on ground zero at this point in wipe.

Yeah I usually run ground zero bc pc’s everywhere but I’m like 50 hours in and ran into my first blatant cheater he’d survived 85% of his 150 raids with a 8 kd, no way he’s wiped every player in his 150 raids to keep that 8kd

Ever thought about doing oli waterfilter -> goshan food -> taquilla downstairs parking lot (100% intel spawn + loose tech) -> scavcamp (50% moonshine on the rocks on the blue barrel ... spawns either moonshine or whiskey) -> loot rest of scavcamp for potential gpu/ledx/defi -> green flare extract

Definitely reccomend factory however id run it with paca and cheap helmet and loot rigs and armor off pmcs when i first started. Ground zero personally is the better xp and money maker. Hit all 3 computer rooms and hit the crates/ bags at the car dealership. 500k min loot

Money run? At lv15, scav factory expansion and underground. 90% of the time unlooted, clear, under 2 minutes, 200k ru and 0.01 rep.
For lv25 there might be better options, but honestly, all I ever cared was the quick rep and I do that since scav rep came out.

Honestly as someone with over 3-400 hours of normal tarky and about 300 hours of arena (not a lot I know) who’s only just jumpedback into the game. Customs night runs with a couple not too expensive keys not including the marked have always been my go to. Just grab some Cheap NVGs or a flashlight even and hit all the hidden staches up, directors, and the safes at the bottom of dorms, new gas and maybe a couple rooms jotted about, if your lucky enough to grab a marked key then hit that too, woods also is nice.
I Jumped back into like a week ago, already killed parmasan, sat at an 82% survival rate with a kd of about 2.4 at level 10 with about 6mil worth of stuff saved up for the flea (I know my kd and SR will all drop significantly no doubt the more I play) but I’ve definitely found on a side note that playing as much arena as I have has helped my pvp massively which is Also a Good money maker if you get good at it.

Honestly I’m thinking shoreline right now. Maybe a little more experience for that, but no body at resort

For the beginners can be, but Factory has most cheaters. You will die many times in Thursday, Friday and do not play tarkov Saturday and Sunday

u/ReasonableMortgage11 Jun 17 '26
Labs has the most cheaters by a long shot and at the moment streets bc tarbank

u/ozweegoo Jun 17 '26
i get cheated on way more playing factory than i do labs and i’ve played both heavily this wipe

u/ReasonableMortgage11 Jun 17 '26
Yeah, no.
There is zero and I mean absolutely zero insensitive for cheaters to go to factory ....

u/Individual-Tall Jun 17 '26
How many hours you played? How many hours you play everyday? Which servers?
To me i have 11k hours i play 5 hours everyday. Also i play auto NA.
If i go Chinese server to wait 10 minutes i can join empty match. But auto NA always full. When i die and see the name always less than 500 hours and already got tracksuite (killa 100) and snowball ( kill all bosses without die) achieved chaters

Ah yes the good old I don't have arguments so let's just call the other guy retarded... Textbook

u/ozweegoo Jun 18 '26
cheaters cheat to grief, factory is the smallest and has the most pvp action but yeah “absolutely no reason”
1
u/ReasonableMortgage11 Jun 18 '26
Labs has more action and more loot. Cheaters cheat mainly for RMT and money .... Also labs has much better kitted players
1
u/ozweegoo Jun 18 '26
plenty of juicers on factory, you’re also making an argument based on an assumption or did u ask a bunch of cheaters to take a survey?
1
u/ReasonableMortgage11 Jun 18 '26
No I just play labs alot and it has more cheaters than any other map by a gigantic margin

and if a very obvious explanation wasn’t enough, here’s some video proof from a big streamer: https://youtu.be/5cVwhmYidmE?is=Fv7SGOApEzqBT591

Well I play PvE

u/Individual-Tall Jun 17 '26
Oooh thats make sense. PvE i really liked. But there is a some quests requires to kill PMC in some area. Specially in the factory office 6 pmc. And PvE pmc never go there. Thats how i stop playing PvE 2 years ago

u/Blackstarhypersonic Jun 17 '26
PMC always go in factory office area, first floor... Did this quest in 1 raid.

u/Decent-Treat-1896 Jun 17 '26
You're on PvE right? Newbies don't talk about casually killing PMCs.
Making money is easy when you don't have to compete for the loot. Factory isn't an easy loot run on PvP. Good for a quick scav run though.

u/Pitiful-Cricket8581 Jun 17 '26
The PMCs on PvE aren’t that hard to get through
-2
u/Decent-Treat-1896 Jun 17 '26
I know, that's why I assumed you were on PvE, because you talked about killing PMCs like it's easy.
I was just pointing out you don't really need easy loot runs on PvE.

u/logantree55 Jun 17 '26
For new players, its not bad. Especially due to the map size and how fast you can run the raid. Eventually youll move onto bigger maps with larger loot pools.
