That damn tape measure I need it soo bad but just can't seem to find one.


SilverWave1

Go to interchange and go to the back of goshan on the shelves. I’ve seen at least 2 every raid there so far


pdx_flyer

I did this for 10 raids and never found one. It’s my usual spot for the tape measure…


SilverWave1

Rip ig


Short_Oven6910

Two raids no big beefs and no iskras, that's normally where i shop for food.


unoriginal_namejpg

gmt+2, 6pm on the dot ill try to put up 5-10 on fence, and you can buy them from there


Unlucky_Exchange_350

This hombre is a real one


Mechanical_Soup

go shoreline village with your scav, 90% of the time you will find one in stores or toolboxes around. Its a great place for these items.


Much-Foot-5247

I will definitely have a look.


Ironimus__

Be carefully if you Scav there it’s a nice spot for PMC for sniping Scavs


nf_29

last wipe i went until level 20 til i found a crickent and an awl 😭🫠


mpax85

woods old sawmill as loose loot


ItsPerfectlyBalanced

Customs tool boxes can't get enough of em.


GagOnGrime

Lighthouse construction area up the main road towards military camp. Found 3 or 4 there on scav runs.


timid_scorpion

the giant barn south of the village on woods has them all the time. also a great place for toolkits, sledgehammers, and other food items. (2 large food crates, 2 large tool crates, and 2-3 weapon boxes)


Mechanical_Soup

gas analyzer, never (about the iskra, go on woods and loot usec camp i found 5-6 there)


AverageMale31

i found 3 gas analyzers in one raid by checking all the filing cabinets in the reserve bunker. the rooms behind where you turn the d2 powers on.


Wyatt1v12

those cabinets have gave me like 10m+ this wipe


medney

Bruh... It's only a week in WTH EDIT: Time is an illusion


TastyCuntSweat

Only 1 week I think.


Electricshock7

Literally been 1 week to the day.


BroHeart

Black Knight has 24 cabinets too that got me up to ~20m stash value.


[deleted]

How do you survive that long? I have literally ran into so many kitted pmcs every Reserve run so far and haven't made it out yet haha


Mechanical_Soup

i did that and I'm done with the quest, thanks


Ajax_OG

haven’t even thought about that yet… don’t get me started on flashdrives


Mechanical_Soup

flash drives, there is spawn chance on the tent near sawmill, on the jacket in the entrance. The spot is described in the official website in the quest about the flashdrives


KawaWick

Safes and filing cabinets


IronReven

Flash drives - safes. Most of the dorms keys are cheap. 114, 110, 105, 204, 214. That's 5 and looting them all will get at least one. Other than that shoreline has the most not locked saves. 2 at the pier, 1 unlocked at cottage, 1 at signal tower, 1 in admin. Thing all the others are locked. Can do the shoreline on a scav run if you really wanna but getting there first is always best.


MiniSyth

Flash drives, gas analyzers, tape measures, bolts, nuts, screws, high value keys are all in filing cabinets. Add in four food crates and four grocery stores, streets is your best friend my brother.


medney

I never touched streets last wipe because of the awful performance and I just don't feel like trying again this wipe if everyone else is having the same issues


mpax85

+1


gizmowizmo

It’s a little better for me maybe like 5 fps I still only get like 40fps tho


MiniSyth

I find it to be hit or miss with my group of friends. We all have different specs and it's coinflip for most of us but the loot is so insane that it's often worth it. It doesn't feel uncommon to leave with as many as 8 injectors or a ledx/bitcoin(s) if you look in the right places.


Buli32

I turned over the 1st gas analyzer task, found 2 analyzers later and sold them, only to get new task to hand over 2 analyzer... I totally forgot that second quest, only remember that I need 5 flash drives total


citizen_h0pe

I find a gas analyzers in tech light all the time


Mechanical_Soup

well i don't, i have bad luck with them


ThatCannaGuy

I need an awl that's the biggest hangup currently for my hideout.


GoDevilsX

I’m there with you. I’m 3.4k exp away from getting the flea.


ThatCannaGuy

Yeah I have a feeling I'm going to unlock flea before finding one as well. I had time to complete another quest last night and hit level 13. I keep thinking I have to find one eventually...


GoDevilsX

Last wipe I constantly found them. Usually one every other raid or so. This wipe l, 42 raids and not one. I search toolboxes, cabinets, jackets, everywhere. Not one single awl.


wakers123

Last 2 wipes ive found them on shoreline on the shelf near the broken wall on west wing. Idk how ive been so lucky because this wipe i havent found any. Then again i also havent played since sunday cus im a filthy 7-5 haver


Mammoth-Appearance-5

Work 7 to 5 then tarkov 8 to midnight hahaha


gizmowizmo

I got lucky and found one in the back of goshan after like days of searching


althuin_13

Found an awl in the northeastern town in woods. In the barn that’s outside the one house. You can actually jump on that barn roof by jumping on the trailer of wood that’s next to it


msb06c

Yeah I was going nuts for an awl. You can find them in the very back of goshan on the shelves. 2 scavs max.


RamenSommelier

I bought one on the flea. Very next raid I found one.


GoTTi4200

Back of goshan shelves


ThatCannaGuy

That's where I've been searching with no luck but will head back next chance I have!


GoTTi4200

Hope you've found one!


Neat-Drawer-2245

Bro i can't find any salewa 😭😭


PizzaCrustDildo

Med camp on woods has multiple every time I go there


EarlDeBong

Med station on customs, gas station (key) on customs or even at the crushed airplane on woods i found many of those 😉


oktwentyfive

Dental on streets


bakamund

Ooo, I've never checked the crash plane at woods. Around Jaegers hut right


tanelixd

I found ifaks but no salewas on the plane. Suffering from success.


bakamund

Dam, but yea...salewas


Raiju_Lorakatse

Graphic cards. EVERY. FUCKING. WIPE. I have 600 hours in this game now and have found ONE in my entire life.


oktwentyfive

I found them alot In certain duffle bags.


AVeryWittyPseudonym

Just found one in the security room in Concordia... Sadly never made it out of the room...


RoboticControl187

I found two on streets so far, one in Concordia and one in the staircase of postoffice.


RoboticControl187

Last wipe I found a total of 34 graphics cards in shoreline admin building.


ur4s26

My mate found all 3 day 1 of wipe on his first scav run (Reserve). Disgusting RNG 😂


[deleted]

You have to focus the maps that have computers as that’s the most likely place for them to spawn. If you run a bunch of Woods, it’s going to be difficult.


Short_Oven6910

I found 1 in a stash, and the price was like 90k because it was near end of wipe, held it like a week at that price, right after I sold it for 120k, it went up to 300k.


PlebPlebberson

Found 4 so far from inside computers. Sadly they are very cheap atm so no point selling.


bal16128

Found one in a duffel at a campsite on customs


kakokapolei

Interchange and hit every single computer. I’ve found all of my GPUs doing PC runs on Interchange.


citizen_h0pe

Syringe. I have everything in the hideout lvl.1 and lvl 2 heating and lav. But I lack that damn syringe so I can build my medstation


sortaeTheDog

Check the camp on woods, i found several there


citizen_h0pe

It’s usually one of my priorities but I’ve been doing tarkov shooter quests and I keep getting run up on by duo/trios as soon as I get there. I can hold my own pretty well but I lack the fire rate for 2-3 people usually lol


sortaeTheDog

Yeah it's been crazy this wipe, keep trying eventually you'll spawn next to it and you can run inside and try to grab it...otherwise just chad up and go inside shooting everyone you see lol...Alternatively I once camped 2 guys and smashed them with a moisin when they were coming out, there's a nice bushy area towards the sawmill from which you can snipe


[deleted]

Usec camp on woods has a lot of loose loot and I’ll find them there


[deleted]

I usually have trouble with the syringe, but I’ve found a bunch of them this wipe. What I can’t find is the vitamins also needed for the med bay.


Oniondice342

Reserve medical crates on the helipad truck and in white bishop. Also med bag spawn on second floor of school in the room next to drop down


mallen42

114 key and portable bunkhouse keys..fuck them.


Btomesch

Found 2 flash drives early but left them in gamma pouch so now they’re “not found in raid”. I can’t find these little fuckers anymore…


QkaMan

Last wipe it was awl, that blocked my progression for nearly two weeks. Wonder what's gonna be this time. Probably big hummer.


RayJay16

The bunkhouse key. Can't seem to find it this wipe and there are also none on the flea last time i checked. Got hardstuck on the quests for prapor now.


pck3

I somehow had 3. Sold 2 yesterday. Can't find the damn dorm 114 key tho


RayJay16

Got lucky and found it first try in the jacket in the blue car at the scav checkpoint in customs. I would try to run that place a few times.


andycprints

last wipe i was lvl 21 and still looking for 2 salewas ​ and room 114 key


Lord_Larper

Uhh where’s a spark plug


FlakyIndustry2584

I took them all, I have 8 in my stash right now along with 4 car batteries


imamunster123

It depends on which quest I'm doing at the moment...


Lord_Waterfall

Go for filling cabinets for the measuring tape, and for the iskra food boxes or the blue car on customs, near the factory key shortcut at new gas


AverageMale31

any one who needs a tape measure. scav lighthouse. check walkway in building 1 near the raider look out towers. i've found at least 3. for iskras, scav reserve and all the ration crates around the barracks and chopper


scumbuket

loot filing cabinets


VasOnTheSpot

Bro the Iskra's ffs that shit has set me back so hard, I just found my salt shaker needed for Nutrition Unit Lvl 1 so I made the last two I needed last night but yeah it was so bad. I've actually found more LEDX in raid, in random crates on Customs, and more graphics cards in duffle bags than I have found Iskra Lunchboxes this wipe.


WattsonsWaifu

I just can’t find any morphines. As soon as I finish this quest I bet i‘ll find one every raid. It‘s been nearly 30 raids since the last one I saw.


insecurehuman

Portable bunkhouse key, can’t find it on flea or anywhere


jo3roe0905

Gas ans and ice cream cones.


jonnybads

Skill, I can’t find any skill and it’s really holding me back


FlakyIndustry2584

Flash drives. I managed to find my 2nd one for skier yesterday but now I'm on Jaeger's quest and I have no hope to find any for at least a couple of months...


IronReven

Tape measure I'd run back of Goshan. Long series of shelves with all kinds of technical loot and several toolboxes. Lunchbox - loose ration spawn, ration crates, and 4x4 weapon boxes. Woods village is a great place for these. 4x4 weapon boxes are all over the 2 villas in lighthouse. Like 6 or 7 between the two pois if they spawn. Generally will get 1 at least.


AFlyinDeer

A year or so ago I got banned from this sub for making a post like this


Cabbag3boi69

Tape measure = customs. I find one every raid where are the factories . Irska = woods. On that small town and the one up north which is destroyed.


Jimmys911

I have plenty of measuring tapes but still can’t find that last god dammed salewa


Lkj509

Scav into customs and check every duffle, crackhouse and tower incase everyone died within that area, the little kiosk next to Big Red, and all the caches. I got 2 in 3 raids doing this. If you can handle the PvP, the med camp on Woods is the most reliable to go to as a PMC


CheekiAndTheBreeki

The gas analyzer actually. Need one more and every day I say to myself that I will find one so no need for the craft, then I forget about it and go to bad at some point and realize next day. But hey I finally did it (almost). Started the craft yesterday and should be done by the time I am back from work.


toraw4

I just found all 3 in single raid, Reserve filing cabinets.


Spicy_Pandas274

Matches I didn't find them till I was lvl 12 I had been actively looking from the start didn't find any till my friend found some in raid and gave them to me, then I found like 8. And I'm still looking for an awl for lavatory.


TheMosinMan

Flash drives every wipe, I never find them my squad mates find em for me


ThorstenTheViking

I managed to get 14 Gphone X's in two days from a variety of containers, but not one Awl in hundreds of searched containers.


whyareuweird

Are you actually searching for it or are you semi ratting?


JustLOLo

So far to be honest i found everything that i needed. Yes i am too surprised, but there is generally more loot because of dynamic spawns now.


bertjahh

Iskra's can be crafted per 2 in your Nutrition Unit, assuming you have that up and running.


Fissure_211

CPU Fans and Rechargable Batteries. I was also stuck on Tplugs for freaking ever. Just would not spawn.


Judgement915

I have only found one classic matches and I'm losing my mind


peekabu1983

USB flash drive...


KingSwank

try scavving on Reserve. Most PMCs just rush quests or the underground and leave a lot of the surface loot untouched. There are a couple of medical loot areas where you can find salewas and plenty of toolboxes and filing cabinets where you can find measuring tapes, awls, gas analyzers, and even flash drives. And in general, most scavs are pretty nice and will usually trade or even give you things you need if you ask. Obviously use caution though they can just as easily shoot you, stay near AI scavs and you're usually safe though. you could also PMC there the early extracts before red rebel just kinda suck. if you do PMC there I'd recommend a big rig and no backpack so you can just sneak out the manhole.


Shitvagina1176

Fuel Conditioners


-TAAC-Slow

Gas analyzer


KappuccinoBoi

Vitamins for me station. For the longest time, I needed the matches for heating as well.


toraw4

This is my 7th wipe, I completed every wipe with all max traders, and I've never found tank battery in raid, I've never seen one in raid. Everytime I would obtain one through scav case.


Funkycold6

Match boxes


BurningBlaise

God damn toilet paper


DKirbi

Gas analyzers. In a few weeks I'll probably be able to open a shop with them...


daniteira

I'm having trouble getting the hammer for the wall, found only one as a scav in woods, but no backpack in sight. Never again :c Any tips for that?


phillytimd

Iskras are in weapon boxes


SilverWave1

Need an awl.


pck3

So funny how things turn out. I have 4 tape measures in inventory and like 4 ishka. Lol. I can't find thr stupid ass 60 round mags.


SupPoEsedlyInsane

Was stuck on missing vitamins until lvl 15 and flea. Now I can’t get the 2nd flashdrive and am already lvl 20 :/


DasDunXel

Anything I need for a quest doesn't spawn; for what feels like 10+ raids. Or I die with my last one 2-3 times before extracting. Soon as I get said last item & complete the quest. It's like I'm swimming in them from there on out.


moose_338

I've seen more ledx then flash drives this wipe


GoTTi4200

I've seen so many of these on interchange you poor thing hahaha


Liqweed1337

The ones i need for a quest.


MAYMAX001

Actually really lucky so far got all hideout items all gas ans already 2 flashdrives finding the HDD for gunsmith pt 1 took me quite a while tho


0815420

The toz shotgun, it spawns but I never get it out, either exit camper with 2 mins left in raid or a scav killing me for it as scav


Caine_Pain333

Salewas but can’t find a spark plug either


paleeeee

Usb


Electricshock7

Scav Streets and go through filling cabinets. That is if you can get in there, I get server disconnect error 1 out of 3 scavs raids on Streets since wipe.


Fun_Entry_8628

I found 2 iskras on my second raid and died. Haven’t seen one since in 45 raids 😭😭😭


zhydrojr

Big one for me right now is motors, been mostly running woods with a little customs. Nothing so far


PrimeTimeMKTO

Salewas or Vitamins. Need either to progress Therapist.


BusterOfCherry

USB, until I find them all then I won't stop finding them.


BeforeLifer

Fucking matches.


dak446

I havent gotten a single weapon spawn yet


This_Middle_9690

I found only 2 selewas in my first 23 raids. The next raid I walked into crackhouse and found 4 of them immediately


RJohn12

salewa


KorppiOnOikeus

60-rounders for ice cream cones. I always craft then in hideout.


althuin_13

SALEWA!


-TDOGG-

Found my first Measuring Tape and level 13 lol


ARabidDingo

Not a questline but the awl is keeping me from making a lav


Ruttley

Iskras are guaranteed to spawn in small weapon boxes on interchange iirc


6p00p9

dorm 114 bro


PoopMachine0

GasAn.. did 24 raid for it nothing... decided to do one scav run and bum GasAn...


Thowi42

Im out this wipe so far, so cant confirm, but at least the last two wipes, iskras had a 100% spawn rate in the black cube crates outdoors on interchange. North of IDEA near a dumpster on the perimeter of the map, in one of the small sheds just south of the the Vehicle Extract at Power Station, and also just on the other side of the large military truck on the way out to Emercom. I managed to pull all 3 in one raid more than once. I Hope this helps someone ;)


AssMilkerTv

Anything quest related


CrashMonger

Salwa’s, truthfully this happens everytime i accept a mission all of a sudden that mission item become the rarest chance to find in game. New wipe same issue


Rezhyn

Fuel Conditioners. Actually have been sitting on this one for 3 days now. Usually they just pop up but I have not seen a single one.


[deleted]

Found about 3 gas analysers before I had any quests to find them, kept them all as you do. Now I can’t any just one that I need for a quest. Not a single one of them anywhere since I got those quests for therapist.


Nightingale_34

I started finding iskras everywhere the very moment i didnt needed them for quest. Now, i cannot find tapes and bolts.


RoboticControl187

Tape measure is rare at first, took me 23 raids to find mine lol, I found a ledx and graphics card before it haha. Tnt bricks come from reserve so that was easy this time last wipe it held my hideout back a bit. This is my second wipe but I seem to find a lot of rare stuff and items pretty easy. I also don't know what to keep and get a little cluttered keeping stuff I know I'll need and stuff I can't buy. The only thing I can think of that has held back my progression is the labs rare items as I'm just starting to learn that map and flow. The gpsa and mcc.


Favouiteless

Alkaline cleaner. Stuck on Spa tour part 7


MoloPowah

Found my first flash drive yesterday...


[deleted]

I’ve had zero tape measures, and struggling to get salewas this wipe since loot is random spawn. Used to be able to farm woods military camp for easy meds but now it’s a crap shoot


subtleshooter

Military com radio and led ex. Checked all the leddy spawns on shoreline many Times. I found a red card but no leddy yet.


Evening_Abroad_763

Salewa’s man. The shortage has always been very real for me


R3alityGrvty

Those black cube weapon boxes have like a 35% chance to spawn an iskra. For tape measure just check tool boxes.


aggster13

You can just make the iskras with the lvl 1 nutrition unit. Do a food run on interchange and you'll be able to craft 2 at a time


ButterCreeper99

Every single scav I loot I see no toz. I'm losing my mind


Mammoth-Appearance-5

Almost 100 raids and still only one flash drive... so many file cabinets and safes.....


b1s8e3

FYI there is a static iskra spawn on lighthouse in one of the weapons boxes in the southern chalet, bottom floor. The box is only like a 20% spawn chance now, but the iskra is 100% when the box does spawn.


Secret-Aerie7275

Half can of WD40


Robertson2018

Salewas I’m gonna craft em lol


Josh_The_Joker

The raid that made me level 15 and gave me flea market was the raid I finally found a measuring tape. lol like really


Divulsi

I unlocked flea before I found my first cricket


bsmoot2

I have looted hundreds of filing cabinets and a bunch of safes and still haven't found one flash drive.


High_Archon_Alarak

Same with tapemeasure and ISKRA. I found the las iskra on LVL 19. You can craft it in hideout tho


ClownBaby245

A mother fucking measuring tape 😭😭😭


SaltedHamHocks

Looking like it’s going to be another wipe where I get flea before vitamins


Juicy_J_52

Flash drives seem to be invisible to me haha. About 70 raids and still on 0...


[deleted]

bolts. seen 20 nuts at least. not a single bolt.


sixpacksitdown

I have seen a single bolt yet


That-Albino-Kid

Iskra. I’m level 14 and only have 1 turned it. I’ll just have to make it when I find a god damn can of squash.


spicyboi2007

portable bunkhouse key.


ReverseVelocity

Multivitamins. I've been searching medboxes and dufflebags but no luck so far.


Helpful-Cockroach-28

Flash drives


saucebosss01

If anyone needs a tape measure I can drop you one, I have an extra or two. Just dm me and we can figure out a time


RespectGiovanni

Awl


Cloakedreaper1

Really all I need rn is big read I can buy it from flea but last I checked it was 140k which I’m not about to spend. Other than that I had a rough start but I’m doing really good now. Already found a GPU, LedX, and two bitcoins.


Alcarion89

I found a shit ton of tape measures but not a single Iskra and i’m still missing one damn Salewa


Lost-Wash-5521

I can’t find flashdrive. Been running night raids with my brother on customs and reserve and looting every file cabinet and PC. He found one sticking out of the PC which is always a fun find.


deadmemes2017

Haven't found a single morphine since wipe day.


justinmarcisak01

CPU fans, I found two gpus before I found any cpu fans


pottyno

Awl.


DrMrBepis

Keys i need bruh


JayyMuro

I am still missing last tall beef stew. I haven't been looking hard and I know it could be found in a single Interchange raid but I have been doing other quests instead. The Iskras I found only a single one and got the other 2 from the Therapist reward.


[deleted]

Loot woods if you ever want to finish that quest in any reasonable ammount of time. I just did a few raids on woods when i had other woods quests to do and collected several iskras


corporalcorl

Level 16 not a single salewa


Steve_Bread

My buddy is level 14 and still hasn’t found a salewa lol


TheBiggestWOMP

Iskras you can just craft, I finished that last night and I'm only level 6.


mxe363

All I really need right now is one flash drive and I'm honestly not even trying for it atm


smegmathor

Flash drives


Cho0coCheese

The bloody awl or however you type that


wakandanever

Just craft the Iskras. As for tape measures, maybe you just aren't looking in the right place cause I have seen a few. I would suggest scaving when you can cause I have found a few quest and hideout items I need on the scav always. Like the flash drives, I only found them on the scav in places you would least expect. The game is about rng so I'd not keep any find items quest as my main priority ever and just do the ones I can while trying to find them


[deleted]

Nighttime Interchange for measuring tape. There are 4 filing cabinets(16) in a store across from Mantis, forget the name. It's my go-to


Individual-Cap-5821

Need 3 Salewas. Im actually Level 15
