Opening chapter — trader chain unlocks every map and The Lab

  1. Step 1

    Escape Ground Zero

    Finish the tutorial raid by extracting via the Klimov Street extraction behind the Skyside business center. The on-screen control hints can be ignored.

  2. Step 2

    Talk to Therapist + unlock Streets of Tarkov

    Visit Therapist on the trader screen and hand over 250,000 Roubles when the dialogue option appears.

  3. Step 3

    Ragman — survive Interchange

    Talk to Ragman, then survive (or run-through) Interchange and report back. Unlocks Skier and Customs.

  4. Step 4

    Skier — survive Customs + 5 building materials

    Talk to Skier, survive (or run-through) Customs, and hand over any 5 FIR building materials or tools. Partial handover not possible. Unlocks Mechanic and Factory.

  5. Step 5

    Mechanic — survive Factory + 2 weapons

    Talk to Mechanic, survive (or run-through) Factory, and hand over any 2 FIR weapons. Unlocks Prapor and Woods.

  6. Step 6

    Skier — Woods (3 kills + extract)

    Talk to Skier, eliminate any 3 targets on Woods (PMC, Scav, or boss) and survive/run-through Woods. Kills don't have to be in the same raid as the survive. Unlocks Peacekeeper and Shoreline.

  7. Step 7

    Shoreline — Terminal intercom

    Go to the south-east corner of Shoreline and interact with the intercom at the watchtower in front of the Terminal, then survive/run-through Shoreline. Don't get too close to the Terminal wall — the guards will shoot. Repeated intercom use after being told to leave will also kill you.

  8. Step 8

    Mechanic — unlock Lighthouse (20,000 USD)

    Visit Mechanic on the trader screen and hand over 20,000 USD. USD can be bought from Peacekeeper with Roubles.

  9. Step 9

    Prapor — unlock Reserve (5 dogtags + Shoreline extract)

    Hand over 5 PMC Dogtags to Prapor (no FIR requirement). Tags can be pulled from any dead PMC, kill credit not required. Also requires surviving/run-through on Shoreline.

  10. Step 10

    Reach The Lab via transit

    Take a transit into The Lab using a TerraGroup Labs access keycard. Two options: Streets → Lab (underground entrance in front of Klimova 16A with the Cosmonaut painting) or Factory → Lab (sewer tunnel connected to the flooded underground area). Transits open 1 minute after raid start.

  11. Step 11

    The Lab — three search objectives

    Inside The Lab, hit all three search points and the drainage exit in one trip if possible. The keycard is consumed on entry, so plan the route.
