Create a Distraction - Part 1
“Create a Distraction - Part 1” is a Ref task in Escape from Tarkov. Requires level 10. Reward: 5,000 XP. Objectives: Plant 3 TP-200 TNT bricks on the second floor of the cafe on Ground Zero. Walkthrough, map and requirements.
Ref — briefing
Look, you're starting to feel like family to me. Like a brother! I think I can hook you up with some serious work. I've got some co-founders in the Arena, Kaban and Kollontay, maybe you know them. Thought they were cool guys, but now they decided to play politics. They want to put their champion in the Arena, can you imagine? And a good champion brings in so much money, you'd know. It's gonna take a lot of time and money to rebuild the business. We need to put a scare into these guys so they realize they're crossing the line. Take some explosive bricks and plant them around their hideouts. Without detonators. We're not gonna blow anything up, but make it look like a big deal. Let them run around with their asses on fire.
Objectives
- Plant 3 TP-200 TNT bricks on the second floor of the cafe on Ground Zero
Tactical notes
- Bring all three TP-200 blocks with you: they rarely turn up in raid, buying is cheaper.
- Each is planted one at a time while standing still — go in when nobody is around.
On completion
Ref: Ha, you should have seen the chaos when they found the bricks! What a show! It's a damn shame we didn't film the whole thing... You did a good job. Here's your reward.
