How to complete the quest

Work through the combat objectives

Eliminate 45 PMC operatives, 100 Rogues and any boss. The quest lists these as separate objectives, so track each total rather than treating one type of elimination as progress toward another.

Complete the map objectives

Survive and extract from The Lab.
Use the transit from Streets of Tarkov to Interchange. Its location is southwest of the Concordia apartment complex.
Use the transit from Interchange to Customs. Find it at the southern end of the highway.
Survive and extract from Customs.

Separate maps showing the Interchange transit southwest of Concordia on Streets and the Customs transit at the southern end of Interchange's western highway. — Use the Streets-to-Interchange transit southwest of Concordia, then the Interchange-to-Customs transit at the southern end of the western highway. The two panels show separate maps, not a connected road.

Keep the transit directions straight. The listed objectives are specifically Streets to Interchange and Interchange to Customs.

Hand over all ten figurines

Collect one found-in-raid example of every figurine on the checklist and hand each over to Ragman. The item requirement applies to all ten, not just the figurines named after bosses.
