Escape From Tarkov’s latest patch, 0.14.8.6, is rolling out as we speak. The installation process will take around three hours… but let’s be real… it might run longer because Tarkov and punctuality don’t always go hand in hand. While the servers are down, let’s dive into what this patch is bringing to the table.
There are plenty of features and changes, and some of them are pretty good. If you’ve managed to make your way through the “Collector” and “Gunsmith” questlines, there’s something special waiting for you. It’s about time those grueling tasks paid off, right?
On top of that, there are some balancing tweaks to the quests that unlock access to the Lightkeeper. Hopefully, this will make the grind a bit more bearable for those of you aiming to meet the elusive trader. You can find the complete patch notes below:
