Tarkov When Scavs Spawn

Do Scavs spawn at the beginning?

No, usually PMC’s usually spawn within the first 5–10 minutes of the round starting depending on the map. Player scavs spawn much later and even up to 5 minutes before the round ends, this is usually done to give PMC’s a bit of time to get moving and do what they need to do.

How long does it take for player Scavs to spawn Reserve?

For example – on interchange the earliest scavs should spawn should be around 30 minutes, it gives enough times for the PMCs to enter the mall and if they need to do a quest or they want to kill Killa then they have enough time to do so before a scav is already camping somewhere or has looted everything.
