As usual, it starts with a task, this time from Skier. The description of the quests, their tasks and rewards can be found below. Information will be added and updated.


Skier - Mysterious in Tarkov

It is necessary to find a special flash drive. It can be found where flash drives usually appear (file cabinets, safes, jackets, Wild). The flash drive must be taken out of the raid and given to the Skier. Note that you need several flash drives, so collect all the ones you find.

Skier - Break through the defenses

It is difficult to decrypt the contents of the flash drive, so you will need the help of the Mechanic.


Mechanic - Deciphering Difficulties. Part 1

The Mechanic will ask you to bring 5 Central CPUs, 5 RAM pads and 3 SSD disks. UPD: The number has been reduced to 3 CPUs, 3 RAM, and 2 SSDs. These items can be found in computers and file cabinets.

Mechanic - Deciphering Difficulties. Part 2


It is necessary to lay the Military Gyrotachometer in the Radar building on the Reserve and use the RSP-30 (Yellow) signal cartridge on the roof of the building. UPD: the necessary items are given out by the Mechanic or they can be purchased at the flea market.

Mechanic - The complexities of deciphering. Part 3

Your task is to eliminate 10 Wild Ones at the Customs House. After completing the task, it will unlock the flash crafting in the refuge in the intelligence center, which takes 15 minutes to complete.


Peacekeeper - Airborne Shapeshifting

The Peacemaker also has a quest to frame the Skier and give the flash drive to him. Depending on your choice, the event will unfold differently.

Skier / Peacekeeper - Take Two / Get to the truth


The files on the flash drive are encrypted, so Skier or Peacemaker will give you a new craft in the intelligence center. Each kraft takes 10 minutes and multiple flash drives are required. There may be decryption failures, resulting in lost time and items.

Skier - Photo Hunt


Need to install 4 wifi cameras at the TerraGroup headquarters at the Epicenter:

  • At the entrance to the parking lot area.
  • By the barricaded staircase.
  • In the closet of office #3.
  • In the corner of office #4 (requires the TerraGroup Scientist Office Key).

Peacekeeper - No peeking!

Kill 10 PMCs at the TerraGroup HQ on the Epicenter, preventing the Skier mission. Possible kill zone:

Mechanic - Forgotten Encounter

Find the forgotten USEC room on the Lighthouse. You can buy the key to the room at the flea market, but you can get in without it by using parkour.

Mechanic - Search for information

You need to get inside the room and find the hard disk of the USEC fighters. It has several places of appearance.

The following quests are done cooperatively by the community.

Skier - Obstacle Course

If you gave the flashcard to Skier, you need to destroy 1,000,000 Peacekeeper fighters on the Shore. Wild counts. You can see the Peacekeeper's losses here.

Peacekeeper - Destroying Obstacles

If you gave the flash drive to Peacemaker, you need to destroy 1,000,000 Skier fighters on the Custom House. Wild ones count. You can see Skier's losses here.

Reward for completing the quest chain:

Players will receive a variety of rewards, including a unique in-game item available for installation in the Sanctuary's Corner of Fame and Player Profile. The item will be retained between vypes. An achievement unique to the event will also be available.

In the assassination race, the Skier won

You can now kill one bot to complete the task above.

Skier - Amateur Radio Club

Skier's task is quite simple, kill 8 any Wild in the Forest and lay three radio repeaters in the agreed places in the mountain area (The first near the wooden toolbox on the mountain, the second at the bottom of the exit Wild “Mountain Stash”, the third near the bunker at the top of the mountain at the sniper stone). Repeaters will be given to you, but in case of loss you will have to scraft them at the workbench.

Peacekeeper - New Hope

Peacekeeper asks you to go to the Coast and find a laptop in the area of warehouses northeast of the Sanatorium. The laptop may not only be in the car, as the spavn is dynamic.

Peacekeeper - Svyaznoy

Peacemaker can't decipher the laptop, but he doesn't intend to share the information with the Mechanic anymore. Therefore, he will ask you to go to the Customs to the towers near the gas station (Reshala's spavn) and lay a Bitcoin Coin in the temporary house. After that you need to signal Reactive signal cartridge RSP-30 (Yellow) and get out alive from the location. The location of the signal is outside the temporary building, but don't accidentally hit the tower!

Merchant - Ceasefire. Information

As it turns out not everyone is happy with what Skier and Peacemaker are up to. Turns out they've been corresponding and you need to find the letter on the Shore in the village. There are places with the letter below, but the spavn is dynamic.

Merchant - Ceasefire. Part 2

The Merchant wants to stop the agreement of the Skier and the Peacemaker. In order to do so, you need to kill 5 targets at the Customs House using M4A1 and wearing UNTAR armor and helmet.

The Merchant - Cease Fire. Part 2

The Merchant wants to stop the agreement of the Skier and the Peacekeeper. To do so, you need to kill 5 Any targets on the Shore, using an AK-74N and dressed in the armor of the NPP CLASS “Kora-Kulon” and helmet 6B47.

Buyer - Trade Embargo

The next thing in the Acquisitor's plan is to undermine the affairs of the Skier and Peacekeeper economically. You need to sell 15 of any barter items to the Redeemer. Can be purchased at the flea market. Important point - do not buy items from Skier and Peacekeeper while the task is active!

Redeemer - Ransom

Pay attention to the bonus information under the tasks. The Redeemer will ask you to play along with the Skier/Peacemaker in the next task (opens with this one), and after that - find a phone/laptop and give it to him. This is the final quest of the chain.

Skier - Making amends

Skier is certainly not happy with you and asks you to get to the roof of the dormitory (3rd floor), as well as to eliminate 5 Wild Ones at the Customs House.

Peacemaker — Making amends

The Peacemaker is also not happy with your actions and asks you to get to the eastern wing of the sanatorium on the Coast, as well as to eliminate 5 Wild Ones on the location.

True Ending. Caretaker — True Guess

If you have the Caretaker open, you can visit it and take the quest during item 17 (The “Making amends” task must be completed, but “No Ransom!”). The task requires you to sell 5 weapons to the Skier/Peacemaker, find the phone/laptop above and hand it over to the Caretaker. The rewards are shown in the screenshot below. In this case, the Fencemaker's task will be failed, but he will still give you the Cat hologram.

  • Reward for completing a chain of quests:

The reward is an Amulet of the Devotee that protects you from sectarians, a hologram of Mr. Kerman's Cat for your Glory Corner in the sanctuary, and an achievement depending on the side you choose (Skier, Peacekeeper, or Caretaker).
