Postman Pat Part 1 in Escape from Tarkov: How to complete and rewards

The Postman Pat questline can be acquired from Prapor, one of the Traders in Escape from Tarkov. In the first part of the quest, players must go to the Factory to obtain a special letter and extract with it to complete the mission. Since the map’s size is on the smaller side, the chance of encountering a hostile PMC is quite high. This makes the task even more difficult as players will have to extract with the quest item in their quest inventory.

That being said, this article will explain how you can efficiently complete Postman Pat Part 1 in Escape from Tarkov.

Since you don’t need any keys to complete Postman Pat Part 1 in Escape from Tarkov, simply equip all the gear you need and start a Factory match. A night raid would work well, as you can easily sneak around the map without getting seen. Regardless of your spawn location, head to the southern part of the map.

After reaching there, look for the inscribed number, “1986” on the southern wall of the Factory. Once you find the inscription near Gate 5, you will be able to see a small room under it. From the left side, go inside the room where the sealed letter is located. If you look beside the dead body with a green glowstick, the letter can be found below the cardboard on the ground.

Look at the letter and once the pick up prompt shows up, press your interact key to acquire it. When you pick it up, the first objective will be completed. Now, get out using one of the extract points to get to the second objective.

When you are back to the main menu, go to the Traders section and open Therapist’s Missions tab. There, you can see Postman Pat Part 2. Select the quest and hand over the sealed letter to the Therapist to complete both parts of the questline.
