Alright, so I finally tackled the “blue folder” quest in Escape from Tarkov. Let me tell you, it was a bit of a rollercoaster, but I got it done, and I’m here to share how I did it.
Getting Started
First, I needed to figure out what the heck this blue folder even was. Turns out, it’s an Intelligence item, and you need it for a few quests, most notably for Therapist and Skier. I knew I needed to find it on Customs, so I hopped into a raid, geared up for some potential PvP, because, you know, it’s Customs.
The Search Begins
I’ve heard whispers of a few places where this folder could spawn. I hit up the three-story dorms first, checking rooms 204, 214 and the small security room. I made sure to have all those keys.
- Room 204:Checked on the floor under the small table in room 204.
- Room 214:Looked on the floor under the jacket.
- Security room:The little security room on the second floor of dorms, also on the floor under the table.
Scavenged around, heart pounding with every creak and distant gunshot. Nothing. Zilch. It wasn’t in any of those spots. Time to move on.
New strategy
I decided to take a risk and head to the construction area. I remembered seeing it in a few videos spawns there. I found my first one in the small building on the top of the blue barrel.
- Blue Barrel:On top of a blue barrel in the two-story building.
Still, no luck. Starting to feel the pressure, and the raid timer was ticking down.
My Last stop was the two-story dorms, checking the metal cabinet.
- The metal filing cabinets: Checked the metal filing cabinets, the spawn is on the second drawer.
Bingo! Finally, I found it! Snagged the folder, and made my way to extract, dodging a couple of player Scavs on the way. Talk about a close call.
Key Takeaways
The biggest thing I learned? Persistence. And maybe a little luck. The blue folder can spawn in multiple locations, so you have to be thorough and check them all. And be prepared for some action, because those high-traffic areas are no joke. I did get pretty lucky.
So yeah, that’s how I got my hands on the blue folder. Hope this helps anyone else struggling with this quest! Now, back to Tarkov, I’ve got more loot to find!
