Escape from Tarkov’s has some introductory quest lines for each map. While following the order of the quests isn’t mandatory, it helps players understand the game’s progression system and forces players to play all the maps rather than sticking to their favorite ones. The questlines in Interchange start with the Big Sale task from Ragman. Here’s how to finish the Big Sale task in Escape from Tarkov and unlock the rest of the other quests in Interchange.
How to Complete the Big Sale Task in Escape from Tarkov
The Big Sale is technically the second task from Ragman, but it is still the first quest you must finish in Interchange. The first Ragman quest only requires you to reach level 2 loyalty with Ragman, which leads you to the Big Sale task. Here are the objectives:
- Locate and check the AVOKADO store on Interchange
- Locate and check the KOSTIN store on Interchange
- Locate and check the tRend store on Interchange
- Locate and check the DINO CLOTHES store on Interchange
- Locate and check the TOP BRAND store on Interchange
- Survive and extract from the location
These objectives finish as you set foot inside the specific store. You must go through all five stores and survive and extract from the location. This means that dying in the raid will force a reset, and you’ll have to step into all of the stores again. These stores are all located in the center of the mall, meaning it is one of the hottest areas in Interchange. On the bright side, all these stores are close together so all you need is that one “good” run to finish the quest.
Big Sale Store Locations in Interchange
AVOKADO Store Location
The AVOKADO store is next to the RASMUSSEN store and across from the Generic_Shop store. RASMUSSEN is a hot spot close to high-value stores like Texho and Techlight. There’s also a quest where players stash some helmets and Golden Neckchains inside Generic, so it could be contested.
Kostin Store Location
The Kostin store is near the bookstore and beside the EMERCOM Medical Unit room near the center of the mall, but it is technically still on the IDEA side of the mall.
tRend Store Location
The tRend store is just across from the DINO CLOTHES store and next to the NORTEX store on the IDEA side of the mall. Players rarely go to this part of the area unless they want a safe place to go up to the second floor, as there’s an escalator beside the tRend store.
DINO CLOTHES Store Location
The DINO CLOTHES is next to the SPIEL store and in the same hallway as the other stores in the quest, specifically, TOP BRAND and tRend.
TOP BRAND Store Location
TOP BRAND is near the OLI side of the mall, next to the 4 LIFE store and across from the Sports and Yushka Wear store. TOP BRAND might be the hottest store in the quest when it comes to encountering enemies. It is near the mall’s main entrance and next to Texho, under Techlight and the ULTRA Medical Unit. Proceed with caution when finishing this objective.
After going through all the stores, you can immediately go to the nearest extraction point. If you end along the TOP BRAND store, you should go to the main entrance or OLI and exit. You can also get some Fuel Conditioners in OLI, which will be needed for a quest soon.
After finishing Big Sale, you’ll start getting other quests such as Blood of War, Database Part 1, and soon after, Decontamination Service.
