Escape From Tarkov “Hell on Earth – Part 2” Quest Guide

Hell on Earth – Part 2 requires two Cultist kills with a double-barrel shotgun. Prapor’s “hooded men” are Cultists, not ordinary Scavs wearing hoods. Take an MP-43-1C 12ga double-barrel shotgun for the hunt. Unlike Hell on Earth – Part 1, this is an elimination task rather than another weapon hand-in.
Requirements and objective
This is the second task in Prapor’s Hell on Earth chain. It is available to Edge of Darkness owners.
- Eliminate 2 Cultists with a double-barrel shotgun.
Equipment
Prapor supplies one MP-43-1C when you accept the quest. Bring ammunition for it and prepare for a night raid. Night vision or a flashlight can help you identify targets, but neither replaces checking who you are shooting at.
Carry treatment for Cultist knife poisoning, such as an xTG-12 antidote injector or Perfotoran. Their quiet movement and ambush behavior make rushing into a group dangerous, especially when your shotgun has only two shots before a reload.
Where to find the hooded men
Cultists appear between 22:00 and 07:00 in raid time. Search their spawn areas, but do not assume a group will be present on every visit.
- Customs: The construction area around the Scav base and laboratory.
- Woods: The dilapidated northern village and the checkpoint area west of the sawmill.
- Shoreline: The Health Resort and the roadblock northeast of the swamp village.
- Night Factory: Be prepared to encounter them throughout the small map.
- Ground Zero: The level 21-and-above version can also contain Cultists.
How to complete Hell on Earth – Part 2
- Accept the quest before starting the hunt. Collect the supplied MP-43-1C and check that the objective is active.
- Choose a nighttime route you know. Plan a position with cover and room to reload instead of walking straight into the group.
- Make the finishing shots with the double-barrel shotgun. Damaging a Cultist with it and finishing the fight with another weapon does not meet the weapon condition.
- Check your objective counter. It starts at 0/2 and needs two qualifying eliminations. Once it reaches 2/2, complete the task with Prapor.
Fight from cover and reposition between reloads. Cultists can switch from a knife ambush to gunfire, so a target backing away is not a reason to chase it into an exposed position.
