Hello player! Ahead of the wipe in Escape from Tarkov, let's talk about the most important thing in the first hours of the game - leveling. Quests, weapons, armor, ammo, medicine, everything you need for your survival and dominance in the raid are hidden behind the character's level.
It's a shame when, after the first 3 days, you carefully move with a TOZ-ik on the map, and level 40 in full gear flies out on you, and that's it, there are no chances. What to do? How to catch up with these "special" players? Today we'll talk about this.

What Gives Experience in Tarkov?
For everything. No, literally for everything:
- killing players and bots
- headshots
- kills over 100m
- finding items
- studying items
- surviving in a raid (if you die, you will also get experience, just in smaller quantities)
- completing quests
But if experience is given for literally all your actions - what is difficult? The difficulty in understanding the basics of the game and planning your actions in the raid. And today we will tell you how to pump up your character as efficiently as possible.

1. Plan a Raid in the Stash
When collecting a character for battle - check the list of quests for the map you plan to go to. Remember or find out all the places you need to visit and build a preliminary route in advance. Do not spray yourself on all the tasks at once. Choose 2-3 that are close to each other. In a raid, try not to deviate from your planned route.
2. Kill Quickly and Accurately
For each NPC headshot you get a 100% bonus experience, and if you know how to do "one shot � one kill", you also don't make any unnecessary noise. Thus simplifying your final task of the raid � to survive.

3. Know the Map
The main advantage over another player is to know where you are, where the enemy can come from and take an advantageous position. Study the map, places of interest, PMC spawns, NPCs and bosses and be ready to meet any of them not in the open, but in an advantageous position.

4. Survive
In Tarkov, it is important to leave the raid not "feet first". Why do I need this, you ask? I did not loot important items, did not take quest ones. I'll quickly soak up Vasya Zagoreliy and re-enter the raid? No, experience is given to those who reached the end.
With the "survived" status, you get all the experience earned in the raid + 13% on top. If you died, went missing (raid timer expired) or ran (spent less than 7 minutes in the raid or earned less than 200 experience) - the amount of XP will be noticeably cut.

Conclusion
As a result, we can say that level progress in Tarkov is a matter of time. Sooner or later, you will also reach level 40+, open all the merchants and get access to the items you need. But the longer you level up, the harder it will be to resist developing opponents. Good luck to you, mercenary!
