Missing in Action
Go to Prapor and take the ‘Missing in Action’ quest.
Description and Objectives
“Hey there, soldier. You doing alright, haven’t caught a cold yet? I’ve got a lot of guys down with these New Year’s frosts. Not enough hands on the base. But that’s okay, we’ll make do. But things are really tough with groups in the field now, I need your help. One squad was carrying out an important task in the southwest. By now, they should have picked up the cargo and returned. But due to radio silence, we can’t get in touch with them. They can wait out the bad weather somewhere, but they might not have enough supplies. There are 3 rendezvous points where they can go as soon as the weather clears up. We need to leave them something to eat so they can get back to the base properly. In the forest, you need a house on the outskirts, there’s a trail to the reserve nearby. At the military base, you also need to leave supplies. At the exit from this trail from the reserve, there’s an old barracks, there’s a room right at the entrance. Hide it somewhere in the cabinets so the Wilds don’t steal it. My guys might also go to the развязка if they follow the river. The exit to the river is at the smugglers’ camp. There’s a shack near the barrier, leave everything there. And look, don’t freeze to death yourself, put on a hat!”
Objectives:
- Lay a pack of ‘Arseniy’ buckwheat, a bottle of ‘Tarkov’ vodka, and an ‘Iskra’ dry ration in the Wilds’ house in the Forest location.

How to Complete the Quest
After the dialogue with Prapor, you will receive all the necessary items for the task. We recommend carrying them in a pouch until you reach the desired point, as if you die, you will have to buy the items yourself. The main thing is to get to the right place and lay the items: it’s not necessary to leave the raid with the ‘Survived’ status.
Forest
In the Forest location, you need to visit the ‘Outskirts’ area and lay the items in the Wilds’ house near the exit of the same name. It will take only 5 seconds for each item, so you can do it pretty quickly.
Reserve
At the Reserve, you have to get to the barracks. We are interested in the building with the marked room. Immediately after entering, go into the small room on the right and lay the items there.
Razvyazka
The needed вагончик for laying the items is located in the new territory, not far from the river. Look for a light gazelle with a red pattern, the вагончик is to the right of it.
