What is the current 'The Pillager' event, and what quests do I need to complete?
The current 'The Pillager' event is a random promotion, proceeding through two quest lines offered by Skier and Peacekeeper. The first quest involves killing PMCs on a specific map or acquiring three secret masks to kill five Pillagers. Afterward, you will choose either the Peacekeeper or Skier quest line to complete additional tasks.
Where do Pillagers spawn, and what equipment do they wear?
Pillagers spawn in major areas such as Customs, Stronghold, Lighthouse, Shoreline, Interchange, and Woods. They are related to Skier and Peacekeeper quests and appear wearing Arena equipment. Their ammunition might not be great, but their firearms or masks can be attractive cosmetic items.
What are the main missions and rewards for the Peacekeeper and Skier quest lines?
The Peacekeeper quest line, 'Backup Plan,' involves hiding a Grizzly kit in a specific location and completing the Flipping Transit on Customs before killing enemies. The Skier quest line requires more items (like long magazines, PS ammo, etc.) than Peacekeeper's and can be somewhat more cumbersome. The final reward for the Peacekeeper quest is either a Weapon Case or 300,000 Roubles and 18,000 experience points, with rewards like GP coins and locked boxes also available.
What are the difficulties of farming PS ammo required for the Skier quest line?
The Skier quest line requires 120 rounds of PS ammo, which cannot be purchased from the store currently and must be farmed in-game. This adds extra time and effort to complete the quest and can significantly increase the quest completion cost.
How does completing event quests affect Merchant Reputation (Reputation)?
Interestingly, neither the Peacekeeper nor the Skier quest lines increase merchant reputation. Therefore, proceeding with the quests expecting a reputation boost is meaningless.
What new content is related to the Arena Battle Pass?
Along with the Arena Battle Pass, a new Factory map is planned to be added. It's based on the existing Tarkov Factory map but is brighter and has no lootable items, leading to expectations of improved FPS performance. Additionally, a new Revolver box and various cosmetic items (jeans, armor, tops, masks, hats, etc.) are planned to be added.
What is the appearance of the new Vagrant (Pillager) faction, and what are their characteristics?
With the event, a new faction called Vagrants (Pillagers) has appeared. They wear armor and items obtainable from the Arena Battle Pass and often wear or carry masks in their backpacks. They travel in groups of 5-6, and while some wear powerful gear, they are generally weaker than the Scavs from previous events.
