All Escape From Tarkov Ground Zero Quests
There are four starting quests on Day 1 that will pave the way for players going forward in Escape From Tarkov Ground Zero map.
Saving the Mole
Saving the Mole quest involves players heading to the Terragroup headquarters and then into the garage entrance there. Once you find a white van, you will find the body of a PMC. This will initiate the quest and players will have to head to the main lobby and then head to the back to find the rubble and the dead scientist.
Once you get the Science Office Key come back to the main lobby and then head up the stairs there and then take a right. Now, look for room number 4 and then use the office key over there. Now, you need to locate and obtain the scientist’s hard drive before extraction. It usually is located on the center desk for players to find.
Burning Rubber
For the Burning Rubber quest, players will need to use the paid vehicle extraction out of Ground Zero in Escape from Tarkov. Head to the right from the Terragroup Headquarters and you should see a Black SUV type vehicle which has its taillights on. The vehicle extraction requires 5000 Rouble and once you have those you can complete the quest.
First in Line
The First in Line quest requires you to locate the Emercom Station on Escape From Tarkov Ground Zero. While it looks like a difficult task to find, it’s actually very easy to spot. Head to the left from the Terragroup headquarters, take a left at the end and keep going further till you reach the top of Skyside to find the Emercom Station. Once players reach there, they need to hand over any three medicine items.
Shooting Cans
For the Shooting Cans quest, players will need to locate the AGS Launcher and the Utyos Machine Gun. We have mentioned where you can find both these weapons earlier and you can check that out. Since these are close to the windows on the FL2 of each building, the next part of the quest will be simple. Players need to eliminate at least five enemies on Ground Zero to complete the quest.
