'Understanding the 'Escape From Tarkov' Khorovod Event in Full Detail'
A novel addition titled "Khorovod" has been introduced in Escape From Tarkov, coinciding with the latest server reset. This event incorporates various challenges across different maps, with successful completion yielding rewarding payoffs.
With the most recent server update, Escape From Tarkov unveiled an abundance of fresh features, highlighted by details regarding the "Khorovod" event right at the top of the patch notes. This event is expected to keep enthusiasts engrossed for several days following the initial excitement from the server resets starts to wane.
Post the initial days of the server reset, the "Khorovod" event is now nearly active in its entirety. The event includes a unique game mode, storyline, and a detrimental status effect that can almost entirely impair your sense of sight. There's a possibility that even more content will be unveiled as the event progresses further.
However, much like the significant events in Tarkov, acquiring relevant information proves beguiling. Substantial resources to learn about these events remain largely absent. As a result, here's a compilation of comprehensive information to navigate "Khorovod" in Escape From Tarkov.
"Escape From Tarkov" Khorovod Event Quests
The "Khorovod" event in Escape From Tarkov introduces nine new quests. Some become accessible as soon as you initiate Tarkov for the first time during this server reset, while others necessitate preliminary tasks. Some quests are relatively simple, requiring items related to the event to be acquired in regular Tarkov mode, while others demand participation in the "Khorovod" game mode.
Christmas Dinner
In "Escape From Tarkov," Prapor assigns the Christmas Dinner quest. The objective is to discover specific food items scattered throughout Tarkov, subsequently delivering them to Prapor. Several of the required items have heightened spawn rates due to their association with Christmas trees and gifts, rendering this task less daunting than it may initially appear.
To complete the quest, locate and hand over:
- Five Salty Dog beef sausages
- Five cans of green peas
- Five jars of DevilDog mayo
- One bottle of Tarkovskaya vodka
- One bottle of Dan Jackiel whiskey
- Three jars of pickles
Cheer Up
Prapor provides the Cheer Up quest in "Escape From Tarkov." All that's required is erecting a Christmas tree in your hideout, which can be accomplished by retrieving one of each colored bauble distributed throughout Tarkov. The majority of the baubles are ubiquitous, particularly near Christmas trees, ensuring that this is one of the simpler quests to accomplish.
Chilly
In Tarkov, Jaeger assigns the Chilly quest, which currently appears to be unachievable. It requires killing ten targets that are afflicted with the Frostbite effect; however, it appears infeasible to suffer the Frostbite effect in PvP raids at the moment, rendering the quest completion impossible without further amendments to the game.
Hide in Plain Sight
Ragman designates the Hide in Plain Sight quest in Tarkov, directing players to locate Christmas trees and markets concealed within Tarkov. The Christmas trees can be found on Customs near the Smuggler's Boat extract, on Lighthouse at the supermarket close to the water treatment facility, on Reserve at the helicopter nestled between the barracks, on Interchange at the main entrance to the mall, on Shoreline near the west wing of the health resort, and on Woods in the sawmill.
Holiday Beyond the Means
Skier assigns the Holiday Beyond the Means quest in Tarkov, mandating the elimination of ten PMC operatives while dressed as Ded Moroz or Santa. To accomplish this, don a Santa or Ded Moroz hat, a fake white beard, and engage PMCs while adorned accordingly.
This Is My Party / The Price of Celebration
These two optional quests offer the flexibility to complete either one or both. Both necessitate eradicating ten PMC operatives, but the method of completion varies depending on the selected quest. To complete This Is My Party, wipe out ten PMCs that are not wearing the Khorovod armband while bearing the armband yourself within the Khorovod mode. To complete The Price of Celebration, kill ten PMCs during normal raids while devoid of the Khorovod armband.
Enough Drinks for That One
In Tarkov, Ragman assigns the Enough Drinks for That One quest, which demands eliminating Killa and ten scavs with event facemasks on Interchange between 22:00 and 10:00. Given that boss spawns currently stand at 5%, this will undeniably necessitate substantial investment of time.
Khorovod ( quest)
In "Escape From Tarkov," Parpor assigns the Khorovod quest, which mandates reaching Interchange within the Khorovod game mode. You can learn how to accomplish this below.
The Khorovod game mode in Escape From Tarkov shares many similarities with the Marathon mode which debuted during the initial stage of the previous server wipe. You can opt for it by selecting the mode from the top right corner of the map selection interface.
Once you've chosen Khorovod, you'll begin on Shoreline and your objective is to progress to Lighthouse, Reserve, Woods, Customs, and Interchange to accomplish the related mission. You can proceed to the next map only after successfully activating and fortifying the Christmas tree on each location, and completing all maps within a single player life.
Upon entering a map, you'll need to locate the Christmas tree and energize it with Special 40-degree fuel. This triggers a five-minute timer during which you must safeguard the tree from scavs. Upon expiration of the timer, you can then proceed to shift to the following map for a similar challenge.
Frostbite Impact in Escape From Tarkov
The Frostbite impact in Escape From Tarkov seems to have been introduced in the patch notes accompanying the 0.16.0.0 update. It's essential to complete the 'Chilly' quest, but current game mechanics lack a method to acquire the Frostbite effect during standard Tarkov raids, hence rendering the quest unfinishable.
- Players experiencing the "Khorovod" event in "Escape From Tarkov" must be aware of the Frostbite status effect, as it can significantly impair their character's vision in the unique game mode.
- Tarkov enthusiasts participating in the "Khorovod" event may encounter challenges related to the infamous boss Killa on Interchange, as the Enough Drinks for That One quest requires eliminating him along with ten scavs wearing event facemasks.
- Coinciding with the "Khorovod" event, the game mode shares some resemblance to the Marathon mode that debuted during the previous server wipe, requiring players to progress through various maps, activate, and safeguard Christmas trees, and then shift to the next map within a single player life.
