Mechanic
Escape From Tarkov “A Helping Hand” Quest Guide
Find Prapor's package at the Woods train depot, extract with it, then hand it over through Shipping Delay - Part 1.
A Helping Hand hinges on getting one quest item out of Woods: Prapor’s package. It appears only while the quest is active, and failing to extract with it means losing the package.
Requirements and objectives
Mechanic gives the quest, which takes place on Woods. Activate it before searching for the package.
- Locate and obtain Prapor’s package on Woods.
- Survive and extract from the location.
- Complete Shipping Delay – Part 1.
Needed equipment
No specific equipment is listed. The package is a quest item, not a piece of gear you need to bring into the raid.
How to complete A Helping Hand
- Reach the Woods train depot. The depot is accessible through the BTR Driver’s taxi service. Search the building at the northwest end of the depot.
- Check both package locations. The package can spawn under the table beside the bed or on the desk in the back office.
- Extract with the package. It moves to your quest-item inventory when picked up and is listed as found in raid. If you fail to extract, you lose it. You can also leave the depot on foot by crossing the western train. Stay near the center of the train to avoid snipers and mines.
- Hand the package to Prapor. Turn it in through Shipping Delay – Part 1, then complete A Helping Hand with Mechanic.
