Questing is the main goal for many players in Escape From Tarkov. But without waypoints and quest markers, it can be quite easy to get lost and confused on any of Tarkov’s quests. Surplus Goods is no exception to this rule as it can be quite the confusing quest in Escape From Tarkov. What should be a simple fetch quest only manages to give you a vague idea of where the item you are looking for is. let’s go over where you need to go in order to find the item and complete Surplus Goods in Escape From Tarkov.
How to Complete Surplus Goods in Escape From Tarkov
The main goal of Surplus Goods is to find an MBT Integrated Navigation System and extract with it. To find this item you will need to go to Reserve and make your way to the garage area of the map with the RB-ST key.
The garages can be found next to the gas station and the White Knight building. It will be a long chain of garages all linked together, the furthest garage from the White Knight building is the one we want. It will have the main garage doors closed and the only entrance is a locked gate in the garage next to it.
This is where you will need to RB-ST key in order to open the gate. If you don’t have the key for yourself, you can try to wait until later in the raid and hope someone opens the room and leaves. Since the quest item is clientside, you don’t have to worry about it being looted.
Once you manage to get inside the locked garage, you will want to look around for a pile of boxes tipped over and opened. Inside the opened box you should see the MBT as a lootable item. You don’t need to worry about having space in your inventory to loot it as quest items go into an invisible inventory in your tasks tab.
When you have grabbed the MBT, you just need to extract wit it. This can be done by taking the nearby sewer manhole extract, just make sure you don’t have a backpack on. If you don’t feel confident in your PVP skills, you can try to quickly run and grab the item at the start of the raid and extract it as fast as possible. The item will still be good to turn in even if the raid is a run-through, but if you die it will be dropped and you will need to go back and grab it again.
After you manage to extract with the MBT, make sure you remember to turn the item into Mechanic or at least move it from your quest inventory before going back into a raid. If you don’t turn in the item or move it to storage, you will end up taking it into your next raid and if you die the item will be lost.
Hopefully, this guide will help you complete one of the more vague quests in Escape For Tarkov and put you one step closer to getting the Kappa container. Completing Surplus will at least end the questline so you won’t have another task following this one.
