[@TabiTheCat]

hey man, everyone else already beat you to streets, its all people post anymore

[@cambot814]

Great guide! My first raid on G0 I went into that bathroom with the skeletons and found a Gold skull ring on one of the hands sticking out of the toilet. Every other time I went there there hasn't been anything though.

[@FangZandith]

Pest, there are 3 safes you may not know about. They are generally only money safes, but occasionally spawn jewelry and horses. One safe is always open, two are RNG. The first safe is by the yellow Tartower's building. It is laying next to the bushes, directly in front of the entrance seen at timestamp 4:49. This building also has 2 computers, 1 possible duffle bag, and 3 possible tool boxes. Loose loot can spawn on the lobby table. Behind the red forklift to the left of the building is a large green pelican box. The second safe (RNG) is around the side of Capital Insight. When you leave Capital Insight and head to Nakatani, you would take a right and hug the wall into a court yard. It's in front of two small stores called Giovanni Teducci and Budda Lounge, you can see them at time stamp 13:02. The third safe (RNG) is near the hole in the interior wall of Empire building, when coming in from the main street. It is on it's back, next to the wall on the teller side of the building. You look directly at it at timestamp 14:50.

It really looks like it woulda been a lot of effort, huge props to the editor. Next time move the camera less and make it easier for them Pest!

Only improvement to it could be an arrow showing his direction. It's already great tho.

[@ashenwinter]

Felt determined to finish my quests and put on my best gear then ran straight into that claymore room from spawn

[@DUGAN4O4]

This really made my day 🤣🤣🤣 This is me usually 😮

[@JeffreyMcLain]

Hey just wanted to offer in some feedback that the map that my friend Narpha added in the upper left with the little green dot in showing position is SUPER helpful for my brain. Being able to orient on the full map vs what you see in game really helps me. Thanks!

[@MadameMishka]

A cheeky way to leave the terragroup building if you're either worried about people coming up the stairs while you're in the office or for some style points, vaulting out the window (you need to be on top of something like a desk or the couch Pestily showed for whatever reason) you can head towards the car extract on that balcony and theres a little roof with some big pillars next to it. You can sprint jump onto that roof and then onto the pillars, and as long as you dont mess up the jump you can get down that way without breaking your legs

[@searat9814]

I might have to check that out in an off-line raid and give it a go. Sounds useful

[@headbusta202]

Ya run away coward

[@michealnelsonauthor]

Might be good to pre-med as you get there, just in case you do break legs. 1-2 broken legs Happened to me more often than not…

[@rexanaxer]

cheers from a rat that put the game down due to unoptimization a couple years ago; i've been putting off this map and just running Reserve but you can only get so much done without questing. Thanks for instilling confidence in your fellow PMC! o7

[@zynz_350z]

I'm still doing those tasks and just keep getting killed more than any other map, pissing me off honestly

[@JerryKansky]

Hated this map first couple times, after this guide, I've finished all the quests and it's become my go-to scav warm up map. Thanks for the awesome guide

[@Taint-Bruiser]

@pestily the mini map edit is S-Tier! I personally learn the best if I can actually visualize where I’m at on a map. So that helps TREMENDOUSLY for me. 10/10 job.

[@ionized_salmon6417]

8:25 there's an incredibly rare gold spawn that can give you at least these 3 items, roller, gold skull and gp coin. I've not found any other gold spawn items so don't expect any absurd value but it does spawn.

[@QuietThePro]

12:30 In that room is also a gold loot spawn. I have found a bitcoin and GP coin on that middle table!

[@CRIXXZEH]

bro started singing halfway through the guide, what a guy, thanks Pestily for all you do for the EFT community, appreciate you

[@sjcosh]

Great guide as always Pest, keep it up, cheers big fella.

[@cannedham3774]

Great walkthrough- I just started playing tarkov after a few year break.. Love this map. Buddy and I chased a guy into that oasis.. He ran up the stairs jumped down off the balcony and smoked us.. We werent even mad.. lol.. Good times 👍👍

[@mitchthegreat]

My first "learn the map videos" were from pestily. Many years later after a long break. Still using his videos. It's like a comfort blanket!

[@davey246642]

Great video! Loved the interactive minimap!

[@WIZERD51]

awesome video. glad to see your still making guides for the game

[@amf777]

thanks Pest! getting back into Tarky after a 3 wipe break. love to see this.

[@jaybravo201]

Great content pest! Look forward to the other guides

[@spurilly9782]

just got into tarkov 2 days ago and im addicted. this is perfect

[@929Finn]

Thank you for the guides as always!

[@benicevz]

Please keep making new map guides!!! I’m new to Tarkov and your videos help A LOT!!! ❤️🙏🏻

[@ToastedWaffles_]

IDK if pest goes over it or not in the vid but from my personal experience there are ammo spawns on every bench outside. So any park bench has ammo spawns that can help out early on or can be really good money once you get flea. I made millions from selling m855 on the flea from the ammo spawns the first week of the wipe.

[@jaysonmosley6771]

Quality content as always!

[@Matt_mate]

Really solid guide and we'll put together. Looking forward to the other maps.

[@jirvin3170]

Love the content and yes I absolutely needed this. With

[@LordLightborn]

Good work, nice to know the good spots and hazards. :)

[@st1tch3s13]

Thank you, just bought the game and loving it!!

[@furiousfelicia5751]

GZ is perfect for starting out. It’s got all the loot you need for starting quests and hideout upgrades. Plus scavs will have MP133, and ToZes

[@user-rr3cu7oq8e]

hi mate just started playin tarkov n these guides help so much so thanks mate keep up the good work

[@SheyD78]

Great stuff. Start of wipe I never realised how much we rely on knowing the extracts. That was rough.

[@carsonkitt7651]

I farmed this map as a new person to this game this wipe and have made over 40+ mil off this map. I scav it all the time You missed alot of the weapon crates in this map ( just naming the ones you didn't). There's the one at 4:50 as well as a safe. Theres 2 weapon box spawns near fusion building outside the front 2 weapon boxes in the room where you talked about getting food from ( one of top, one on bottom) 2 weapon boxes in the truck on the middle bridge/ramp by mira. The first computers room you showed also has a weapon box spawn in that room more often than not By nakatani near the dead pmc next to the vehicle there is a weapon box in the back of the truck. Also by nakatani, the building with the ags/computers. That room with the long table you were saying doesn't have much there is a bitcoin spawn on the table there too. And lastly that last key room you talked about there up to 3 weapon box spawns. I also on average hit 4 grenade boxes and 3-4 ammo boxes PER raid. There is an insane amount of ammo and grenades ( ive got 5 full ammo boxes with like 6 stacks of m856a1 and a rig of all ammo and a full grenade box with over 25 impacts)

[@TheShadowFires]

In Olive (food location) there can be 2 weapon crates upstairs. In Tarbank, at the breach in the wall to the hallway there is another lootable safe.

[@carsonkitt7651]

@TheShadowFires yea I never mentioned the safe in tarbank I seem to never get anything out of these, so slipped my mind. Best was a horse in 100+ runs. Good call forgot about the second weapon box up there too

[@TheShadowFires]

@@carsonkitt7651 Yeah, safes have adjusted loot too as it seems. Best I found was a horse as well.

[@justinw.7045]

Thanks Pest and team!

[@Orion382]

Excellent vid, thank you. 🥰

[@jhonquack9721]

I’ve been getting camped so badly 😕at this point I dunno if I have the motivation to play I keep dying to people hiding and can’t complete my tasks because people camp the tasks.

[@garrett1199]

Something to note. The gun workbench next to the lmg will spawm an M4 sometimes! Great video as always

[@lunarluxe9832]

i found a loaded g36 ar on that desk lol

[@nuts_fattening]

The reason some containers can’t be looted is because they introduced dynamic loot container spawns.

[@steve8992]

Thank you for this!!

[@HighonPrivilege]

Great video, thank you!

[@Mike_Dubayou]

just started playin tarkov again aftyv again afer like 6 years. trying to get a hold of everything and i just youtubed 'tarkov map guide', and this video comes up, posted only 14 hours ago. Amazing! Let me say already, I appreciate you saying to go run it in an offline raid and go with you as you explain things. Obviously a good move, and I never even though about it. Thank you for really havin the noob in mind!

[@mjason624]

Thank you for posting - here’s one for the algorithm!

[@kwolfdan3976]

I will keep this video in my favorites becouse i,m trying to do couple of Tarkov streets..Thx Pest..hope to do well, all thx to you..

[@ForbiddenLemons]

Thanks for the awesome video 🫡

[@FireEatingNinja]

Keep up the good work. Great wipe, but I have noticed an increase in suspicious deaths. Still fun though! Plus I always ran wtihout headsets so I'm at an advantage now. GLHF

[@grindcoreninja6527]

Because cheating is rampant and the devs couldn't care less.

[@Mousyy]

As somebody who plays Ground Zero far more than they should, theres another way to do the drop at 6:45. On the left (if you're walking in from the staircase) there is glass that blocks you from walking on the railing, but some are missing. If you go up to the white wall that has no glass blocking it and vault over you can drop on a piece of metal that prevents you from breaking your legs.

[@subliminalfreedom]

Informative!

[@Tiltedpanda88]

Here for the algorithm thanks mate

[@Daddyhinckles]

Thanks this helped

[@joshuab.m.7580]

the table on the left at 18:56 almost always has morphine salewa or some kind of useful med item be it for a quest or otherwise, i was able to get my salewas and morphines for the tasks for this wipe from just that table so if you go to that office always make sure to check it!

[@yeahhesright]

welcome to another skate for taco video

[@vhbcccuhvv8534]

In the secret room that you have to breach in, there is a chance for a golden egg spawn on the skeleton hands. Cuz its an easter egg :D You can check it but its really noisy if you breach it. But a golden egg sells for 50k. Also near Mira exit, where Pestily said the area are mined, you can actually check the lonely building using the only the door. Never go to the right side of that small building you will blow up. Also checking the wine shop shelves for vodka is a good money maker. But a lot of dudes know this so take care. I usually use a slug ammo 153 shotgun to take care of them. Also after like 50-60 hours on this map i found out that goin in with a pistol at night is a very good idea.

[@ranulfwulfric6595]

Thank you

[@animalm4st3r]

Another tip for Mira Ave: if you unlocked Jäger you can buy Green Flare from him and bring that with you to makle sure you can get out there.

[@Eli-ko9cg]

please do streets next thank you theses videos

[@SeeminglyContentPatrick]

Props to the editor for the live minimap 👏🏼

[@JoeHasGas]

This was made for me lol,level 1 player. Shooting cans almost done I need 3 more kills . I'm going scavs on ground zero for map knowledge

[@johnd0e25]

ty ty pest

[@jaii2x]

love u pestily

[@co2bazillus420]

Generall Sam moment at the end with the teammate and the claymore 😂

[@KennyPW]

Poob will remember this.

[@letsplaythatgame]

4:50 there also is a safe on the road you should loot

[@TheShadowFires]

Also in the Tarbank at the breach in the wall there is another one.

[@itzzgingerr1228]

I don't know if anyone answered this yet or not, but I think I have the answer on the non lootable containers. What I believe is happening is all locations are shown for lootables, but not all are lootable because of the dynamic loot spawns. They may have messed it up in offline or kept it in so people can see where all of the spawns are.

[@lilcrouton8208]

nice!!

[@foxtronaut_crashsite]

thanks bud

[@mamibufi]

It has been said in the video but most people tend to forget that offline raids have shit loot. The loot in an online raid is far superior and much more plenty.

[@SIRMAKEYOULAUGH]

Please more videos like this

[@Callum1___]

Another banging video from my dad!

[@Sightbain.]

I really liked this map, it was intuitive, the quests were decent and it had really solid loot. Also the spawns weren't absolute cancer. I would play this any day over Customs.

[@amgil7123]

thanks

[@zombiesue1054]

I've got 500hrs in the game, primarily as a rat, but haven't played in 3 wipes. Came back this week, and I've never had so much trouble just running around a map. Doesn't seem to matter where I go, I run into a player within 2 minutes, every raid. I haven't looked up a map guide in years, but fuck me here I am I guess. Teach me, tarkov daddy, what to do on this map!

[@TheBugB]

Thanks

[@GentlemanKnight]

About to do this raid with another. Definitely won't steer him to the claymore room first.

[@acolytetojippity]

8:55, there are also some weapon crates in the booth/room on the right, and valuables spawn on some of the outside tables. edit: 15:49, the workbench along the wall can spawn fully assembled guns. i've found a G36 there in the past.

[@charlesd820]

Thanks for this Pestily. I'm completely new so this will help a lot. Is it ever worth opening car boots/trunks? Thanks

[@TheShadowFires]

Depends, on customs for example there are some specific cars with good spawns. I highly recommend having a map open on a second screen, stuff like that is normally marked on these.

[@charlesd820]

@@TheShadowFires Cheers, I'll have the map open on another screen.

[@deadsteezytv8552]

at 12:30 ive had good luck with that table spawning gold chains etc.

[@bravermanager8769]

Huge!

[@VesiustheBoneCruncher]

The problem with scavving on this map is that very new players don’t always understand the fence rep system or it’s implications. That said, I’ve been on the wrong side of scav on scav action 3 times in the last day - twice on reserve, with a scav camping hole in the fence, and a scav war near CP fence. And once at construction site on Streets out of nowhere.

[@bythebeardoffletch5084]

loving the ingame map! wil they ever add one?

[@AndreiYoLo]

Yes!

[@ryangiese9466]

Pestily is the bestily

[@tonto6876]

I could not equip the flare and it never gave me an area so then I looked at the map guide and still could not equip it after trouble shooting came back to the game and someone came up behind me as I was leaving. How do you equip the flare. All the hotbar stuff I saw was not working.

[@JoeHasGas]

How much ammo should I bring in if I'm trying to get scav kills using a pistol? 54 ok 18 in the gun ready to go and 1 spare mags/bullets. Or extra mag packed ready to go . Or maybe the one with extra bullets and I'll pack the one. Ty level one player here .

[@True_Beef]

Claymore sign actually says "Not Funny!" Which is actually pretty funny.

[@michaelklog]

did the signal flare and sniper scav still shot me XD

[@pvtm00nGaming]

6:25 You can jump on the big white thing to the right and slide down to get out of there,

[@zatty232]

8:26 i think welyn found a skull in this room in his latest video, but i might be misremembering it.

[@NIGHTSTALKER0069]

I got almost all my hideout stuff for the first two levels of upgrades on this map.

[@love404.]

noob question but how can i enable that map into the game? is there a way to do it as he has it in the video? Because in my overwolf only shows the map and not my location

[@McSkeezer]

In that two story independent room with the car in it, I believe there is a dead scav that spawns and I’ve gotten decent loot from it.

[@gahbor]

bit confused on minimap; on 4:00 you're at Mira but that's not where the minimap has Mira marked...green dot seems accurate to me, but is the "Mira Exit" label misplaced? that seems to be where you say there are mines and such on 4:55

[@dennyahh]

does anyone know if the mira extract can work for multiple people at the same time? if me and a buddy want to leave that way could we use just one flare and both of us run out?

[@spiritofclay3758]

Not sure if they fixed it with the patch but I could not get the hard drive for quest if another PMC got there before me..I had to rush to get there first to get the hard drive..

[@wwaarrddy]

I found a bit coin on the table in that room on the second floor, the building where the AGS is

[@mistervoicelord]

You missed the weapon crate spawn to the left of the landmines, I found a tac vest, helmet, and M4, and flashlight attachment

[@wargun6749]

in the wacky bathroom with the spray paint on the wall i have seen some people i dont think its every raid but it hidden under that like trash by the toilet is a gold skull ring you have to like move around to find it

[@pjohns92]

I like how they got around putting the Unity Dev logo in the game by putting it on the bank building

[@Guelua]

There are 2 free safes that spawn loot able sometimes one around the bottom of double staircase at Mira ave spawn out front the building and one just passed the ags building on the right hand side before you reach nakatani

[@carloshm91]

Hello! Nice video! How can I get that map?

[@GS-el8ll]

the breach room with the toilet 'art' has a gold spawn to the right of the toilet, pretty hidden in the junk

[@brettlynch2707]

11:26 BSG what is this animation choice LOL

[@CourtneyRoberts1982]

Can you use a nade to setoff the claymore?
