Kappa container is considered a big goal for most players in Escape from Tarkov. However, most Tarkov players should not be targeting this as it simply isn't worth their time and I'll touch base on why in this video!

Escape from Tarkov is a massive multiplayer online combat simulator with RPG elements developed by Russian Saint-Petersburg-based game developer, Battlestate Games. Set in the fictional Norvinsk region located on the frontier between Russia and Europe, the metropolis of Tarkov was plunged into anarchy thanks to the Contract Wars. What was once a bustling city, is now roamed by rivalling scavenger gangs and former private military forces and black ops units. Between them all, there's you, your stash, and the escape back to the free world from the depths of Tarkov. - เกม
Getting the Kappa is analogous to the episode about World of Warcraft from South Park, where after thousands of hours locked in a basement playing, and crapping in buckets while getting fat eating junk, Eric/Kenny/Kyle/Stan look at each other and wonder what to do after killing the most powerful player in the game... "now let's play WoW" - The art mimics life.
can confirm
Jokes on you i only care about gamma
Lmao based
I want that slurs quest on factory
I just recreate it for funsies already. Role playing and what not . Only got banned once
Never went for Kappa... the amount of time you need to invest to get it is just not realistic for me. My "kappa" is to get to lvl 42 and then just pvp and loot.
This should be the goal man this is valuing your time.
@TickleMePinkGaming It is for 95% of the player base and I'd say most don't even make it to max traders, other 5% are streamers/content creators, rando grinders and cheaters.
I’m going for kappa on my PvE account. I don’t want to work that hard for something to just lose it
My "Kappa" is actually the "Epsilon" after Punisher Part 6.
@@-CreepingdeatH-yea same I just want a maxed out account with everything I’ve ever wanted before I go back to pvp
"Why do people climb the heighest mountain?"
"Because it's there."
Yeah
The biggest advantage of Kappa is that it teaches you how to do every single quest in the game. The vast majority of your xp will come from quests. Since high tier ammo and loot is locked behind quests and level, it is in your best interest to pursue something like Kappa that way you quickly level up and unlock high tier gear. “Playing the game normally” is actually a disservice and puts you in a hamster wheel where you’re constantly dying and buying in an endless cycle. With kappa, you have a clear progression goal and most of the quests required for kappa are needed to unlock high tier loot anyways.
youre better off just pursuing quests that unlock good items on traders/give said items to you over trying to complete everything. Theres multiple quests that are fucking annoying without giving any meaningful rewards minus xp and theres a good chance that doing normal raids will net you more xp/hour.
As someone on their first wipe, the size of Kappa isn't what really mattered, it made the game fun by being forced into uncomfortable positions to learn the game. Now after Kappa if anything the game feels more stale without any objective barring doing Lightkeeper
First wipe getting kappa? I'd like to see your stats cuz my first and second wipe I could get close to the level restrict but nowhere near quests finished. Sounds to me you either are a credit card gamer or don't contribute to society
I mean if it forces you to experience more of the game and your enjoying it.
same here learn alot about the game in my first wipe after kappa i feel like there is nothing left todo :c
Wtf how? There’s two of you? Kappa first wipe? I didnt even entertain the idea of getting it
@@ham7357 I know a couple guys who got kappa their first wipe, its not a crazy thing, it just takes time, took my buddy like 5 months but he still got it, its just quest lmao
I got kappa, but I also hate myself l. Don't follow my example
thx for sharing wisdom
lol, Dad with a job here, just got Kappa this last week. Definitely a grind, but something I've wanted to do since starting many wipes ago. Doubt I'll ever do it again.
You make a lot of good points, but it's hard to pick a goal sometimes. Kappa is an easy target to identify and work towards. Will probably do lightkeeper next wipe since I'm stuck on assessment part 1 right now and servers are basically dead.
Had the game for 3+ years. Was level 65 one of the wipes. Now I went for kappa, done all the tasks, just need a couple more levels and it’s been torture (especially with bosses) but it’s been another type of gameplay and I’ve enjoyed it.
I've got 5300 hours, I long ago discovered kappa is pointless. And getting it makes you hate the game, I'm currently level 54 so I it's not like it's out of my reach either
I've had Kappa only twice. Once was as a standard account 3 years ago, and right after that I upgraded to EoD. The 2nd was this wipe, and I've barely played since I unlocked it.
I got mine for the first time just a couple days ago, it was a fun but stressful grind. As much as I hated it, I'll probably still go for it, I feel a lot more motivated with a proper end goal, I don't think I could play tarkov too long WITHOUT said goal.
Kappa in pve is a given you get infinite time.
Well joke's on you, I got kappa this wipe and finished my Bachelor's thesis at the same time. You don't have to be sitting at home 24/7 without a job to get kappa and it doesn't have to be a measure of skill for someone to enjoy it. It's a fun challenge for people who like the tasking aspect of the game and a good final goal for the wipe.
I have been playing this game for 5 wipes now and getting kappa always felt like the ultimate test of game knowledge. If I played this game purely for PVP I would much rather play something without all the lag, desync, cheaters and balancing problems. It's trying to achieve this overarching goal that is kappa with the PVP and other challenges as obstacles that keeps me coming back to Tarkov.
A lot of quests are also just luck, I like to set Kappa as a goal despite only having just under 600hrs and being a full-time student just because I'm an over-achiever, and a lot of the quests I just brute-force run it down until I eventually get it done. Last wipe was my 3rd wipe and I really hit the quests the hardest I ever have, and I didn't even get close. I ended just over level 30 and in the middle of all of the lighthouse quests.
It’s definitely doable with a full time job. It’s my first wipe, I definitely play daily, probably about 8pm-midnight and I’m currently only 3 tasks away. This is also while sucking ass at the game. I have no idea how I did psycho sniper and the guide. Part of it might be because of the group I played with at the start only did quests, every raid was completing tasks, no looting or fun allowed.
Side note, my reason for getting it is just to flex on my friends, never going for it again.
Why not? People seem to forget the PvE Zone wont have wipes. Get it at your own pace, its all good.
I heard someone say you should be able to skip quests with trader rep and personally think this is a great idea ofc your gonna have to pay a pretty penny to skip but at least speeds stuff up ip
I started playing SPT, personal opinion - No more stress, anxiety and gear fear and AI PMC's are pretty decent with lots of behaviour customization and best thing -> NO CHEATERS!!!
Even though not that useful, I just like the goal of Kappa. Something to see and work towards and get rewarded for. They could reward me with a small can of tushonka but the point of achieving the goal is what i love
Omicron will be a 3x3+3x1 container and it will be in a new edition 100% or an expansion. Can't wait for EOD players to whine when their edition isin't the best in the game again istg like when they did with unheard.
EOD is op asf with gamma, stash size, free rep, better guns, etc. Unheard comes out and people complain... now it costs normal players or new ones another 100$ to get the most op item in the game.
Kappa has always just taken so long so I’ve never attempted to even try so I feel like your right tbh, the three space I only cared for so I can fit two injector case and a sicc case with a grizzly which I prefer to use
Thx for continuing to upload tarkov content at this troubling time.
Great video. I do enjoy having quests to focus on as it keeps me motivated. However, I have no desire to grind for Kappa. I do the quests that unlock gear and good ammo. Keep up with the Tarkov content!
Kappa Haver/ Light Keeper here: I work from home and have a lot of downtime. There is no way a student or a fulltime worker can achieve this. I have wasted so much time playing these absurd quests.
I got kappa… you have to get kappa to be better… simple!
I did get kappa twice though (not recently) and then instantly stop playing. I feel like forcing me to have some structure and goofy challenges are what keep me playing. Even this wipe when I only played to lvl 32~33 and I come back at the very end I'm still playing Shooter Born and Setup just for the challenge or to get better at them.
So what goals would you recommend since you never said?
I've always just enjoyed tarkov for what it is so I play every wipe as if I'm getting kappa even though I usually don't. I just enjoy having a goal/mission and very rarely go into a raid without one. I'm defnitely getting kappa this wipe. 4 more insomnia kills and an evasion armband, and I get the big bum. This wipe has just been so enjoyable with the recoil changes, progession changes, ect that I've actually played most days consistently this entire wipe so far. Normally I take several breaks per wipe, but this wipe just hit different lol.
Last year I gave up 80% of the way on the suppressed scav shotgun quest in dorms
Me and my group are firmly Kappa enjoyers. We play the game an unhealthy amount. This wipe we felt it was worth going for Kappa.
The only quest we boosted was Psycho Sniper, that shit is torture. I love Sniping but hell nah I’m gonna kill 5 PMC’s without dying. XD
the is also NO Achievement for getting kappa
hmm I never noticed
man i thought it was just me getting those weird skeir quest
Never went for Kappa. I never had the time to play the game in the way it requires you to play to get Kappa in any meaningful time. There's also a skill issue. I played this game on an antiquated toaster of a computer up until a year ago. I was never able to use scopes with magnification or engage in CQC without my frames dropping to single digits. It severely limited my EFT experience.
About a year ago I got a beast of a PC and can finally enjoy some frames with my Tarkov. After over five years at the game, this is the first wipe I was playing and having fun from the get go. That is, until real life dragged me away from it.
Picked it up again just before all the streamers and You Tubers threw a tantrum over the Unheard edition and have been having fun with it again. It's pointless to pursue Kappa unless you play with that in mind since wipe day.
Hell, I'm purposefully ignoring quests that are annoying and just having fun with the game instead.
Somebody needs to make a video or guide of what quests are worth doing and where you can stop questing and what to do/ have fun with tarkov when you get there.
Ye ur right, idc bout kappa. Waiting for a p2w container thats bigger than gamma.
I am only getting Kappa on PvE, and that is because there is no wipes there (according to BSG), so I will eventually get Kappa.
This was my first real wipe and I put in almost 600-700 hours into the game. I previously played back in 2019 and 2020 casually and never hit level 15 (because I hated the learning curve). I am very, VERY close to achieving Kappa. I only have Psycho Sniper, kill Glukhar, kill the Goons, and find the 2 LEDX's for Crisis. But I decided to give up because Gray Zone warfare came out and I just could not be bothered anymore with my time. SBIH took a lot of my time and was the bane of my existence for a long time (although I did eventually complete it). I know I could push for Kappa and complete the last 4 quests if I really want to, but I choose not to. I miss playing other games lol. I'll get Kappa one day, just not this wipe. I'll end at level 48 this wipe :)
I went for Kappa every time because I am objective oriented. Everything else felt completely pointless.
That's how I am. I feel lost without a quest line to do. Once you have gear and money, PVP kinda feels pointless to me. It's almost like different people like different things 🤣.
I'm curious, once you reach kappa, what will you do next? Play less and wait for next wipe? Play other games? Or continue the schedule as before?
fastest sponsor plug i’ve ever seen in my life
I got max traders for the 1st time ever, and this is my 3rd wipe of serious gaming (in my standards, considering a job and a large family) 😂 Even this was so much grind for me that I will probably opt out from 2-3 next wipes.
Been playing since the customs expansion wipe. This is First wipe I got kappa. Questing gives the game purpose. I work 10 hrs a day and have a social life and go on vacations. If you enjoy questing go for it. I always avoided because of bolt actions but dvl was fun.
Its also an end goal for some till main release. Once i get it im playing games ive missed out on. Ive been jobless since november and barely put bout 3 hrs a day. Now that i work its less. Almkst got it though.
Jobless for over 6 months Tf you doing with your life? 😂😂😂😂😂
Goodluck on the job hunt mike!
@@TickleMePinkGaming last sentencec says now that i work. got a job now but thanks
Got Kappa my first wipe (this wipe) at level 52 right before unheard of edition came out. Now taking a break.
I feel like the vast majority of people take a break once they accomplish this. :P
I'll do it again if they put an achievement on it, but otherwise I can't be bothered with a bare minimum of dropping 53 PMCs with a sniper.
first wipe ever for me and first didnt really push for kappa but got it anyways after i saw i got really close after getting to lightkeeper. took me like 1100 raids. next wipe im gonna try to speedrun it and see how fast i can get it compared to this wipe. for me its a fun challenge
Large containers shouldn’t even exist.
Hardest quest at getting it for me is trying not to breakup with my girlfriend while trying to get it
The only thing i dont like is the all the sniping with boltys but ive gotten it a couple times now. It makes you a better player just go for it
Plot twist I put the grind in a few years ago and got it now idgaf abt anything I’m tarkov except pvp 😭😂😂
I was working 12h, 15 days of the month, and ai get kappa in 46 days, i just a question of focus and discipline.
Cool video man I’m a standard Andy so I just go for punisher part6 every wipe but I’m stuck on part4 BRUH lighthouse is terrible
I never got kappa, every wipe I like the game as long as I have some proper progress going on. And when I get the bitcoin miner running and have the red rebel for easier extracts in Reserve, I just get bored and stop playing.
I need some constant small progress to keep me interested. Some 3 extra slots in my butt somewhere in the distant future doesn't matter for me. Also I like raids where I'm the underdog with bad equipment, solo and afraid to lose my gear. I like trying to get into a certain place to pick up an item and then don't want to lose it as I extract. As soon as I get far enough and I have stash full of rigs, helmets, guns, ammo and heals. I just don't feel like playing is worth it. I die, so what, pick up new gear and keep going. Lose quest item and all stuff again, no problem I'll just sell a couple of bitcoins and buy stuff.
I believe it was 2020 is when my friends and I all got Kappa. it was the last time we did it, and nearly the last time all of us could play all at the same time.
before all the bullshit quest and drop loot restrictions.
I can’t be bothered to get kappa hell even on spt I will get bored of doing quests just to get kappa
At 850 raids, playing 1-4 hours a day about 5 days/week, I'm 16 quests away from Kappa. You're spot on about everything. I would like to get it this wipe, but I highly doubt I'll attempt it ever again. I like doing quests but some of them are the opposite of fun.
The only case I see for Kappa is the challenge factor. It's forced me to play very challenging situations that I would otherwise avoid.
I got Kappa this wipe, just found myself 4 quests away from it. Took me 731 raids. It was surprisingly easy, the only challenging quest was Insomnia, because man is it difficult to find people to kill at night maps. If I went for it intentionally, I think I could've done it in like 400 raids, may be even less.
@@ForOne814 Congrats! I totally believe that too. I just crossed 900 total raids (700 PMC, 200 Scav) and I'm down to 11 Kappa quests and closing in fast.
I got kappa 3-4 months into this wipe. Still go to school everyday its not that hard
Only time I ever got kappa was when the whole lockdowns where going on ever since then I just never ever had the time to even try now it’s just too long or to repetitive to try
I got Kappa my second wipe. I did not play 8-12hours a day. It took me 590 PMC raids and probably like 200-300 hours playtime. I just like having a goal when playing so Kappa is perfect for me. I made every raid and kill count and checked my quests
Solo or group play?
Congrats. I just can't be bothered to do the quests. I just find them not fun at all. He made a good point, because everyone I know who tries for Kappa tends to hate the game. I think it would be cool to have the quests be more randomized or alternative paths. Perhaps longer to get there etc.
I just simply hate to play with boltactions, hence i will never be able to make the Kappa.
Not sure why BSG is putting that many bolt-action kill into the quests, but i just never felt confortable to play the 1hit guns.
Otherwise all other quests are done, but i just dont want to frustrate myself with Psycho sniper and shooterborn
I’ve always wanted kappa but never wanted to grind for it😓
Kappa is for people who can grind all day, not for players like myself that can do 2-3 raids per day max.
Then I will buy it ... that is what we do now on EFT! Right?
I got Kappa on my first wipe, completed lighkeeper and just closed 100 killas last weekend. I did play 600 hours in 2 months though.
I just hit 600 hours and I’ve been playing since last October that’s crazy
I think I've hit 700 hours in 3 months. I reset my account at 32 though since I didn't understand Fence and the karma system. I didn't understand why Scavs would say, "I'm a scav, bro!" So!? I wasn't aware of the rep system.
My kappa is m80 lol after lighthouse revision I just pvp up to level 37 and get m62 for this wipe and then back to questing here and there
closest ive ever gotten was in like 2021, i was halfway through collector and even had 40/100 kills for tracksuit but my ex made me sell my whole setup and i havent attempted since :|
Great vid!
For those standard account players 8 more slots is a lot, you could be a bit more objective. You glanced over it but it should of had a more prominent talking point in this video.
I've never go for Kappa for the reasons mentioned here, 9 slots is enough with EOD. EOD is not the only edition though.
uhhh, idk if you're new to the game or what. Get an episilon case its 10% of the effort of kappa and 8 slots.
@@TickleMePinkGaming I have EOD so its not an issue for me, I had Kappa once in the 12.12 wipe, no need to have it again, all I did with the extra 3 slots was a surv 12 most of the time anyway. I had it for like 7 weeks before it wiped. was a fun ride.
It was a good video for sure, but you could have gone into the alternatives and showcased the other containers is what I guess I mean. If I were a standard account enjoyer, i would come away from this with questions.
Thanks for the video and reply 🙂
Vid idea...what to focus on late wipe. When the grind is over and we've got all the gear and roubles..how to get reps in for pvp and end game mechanics to setup for success next wipe :)
"Kappa is for people who don't contribute to society" gotta admit i laughed.
But I did get Kappa for the first time this wipe and I work fulltime. It takes some knowledge and skill and time and doesn't hurt to bring a buddy for certain quests but it is achievable.
This is my third wipe so i have some experience and I had 2 weeks holiday around wipe time and went hard af for a headstart and finished kappa bout 2 months into wipe. I say finished cos I haven't logged in since lol
I got kappa 2 times in my 4000 hours of tarkov 1 time too proof too my self i can get it and a 2 time wiht standard acc too also see how big the difrence woud be
Got kappa 4 times without really going for it, I find once you have the dumb streamer bs all other stuff just kinda happens if you play full wipe and know what to keep. 3 items off kappa this wipe as it will be my last wipe on pvp as I expect the PVE to be my main for tarkov once they decide to stop being greedy and give it to EOD users in these "waves"
This is kinda true but I’m so close rn this is only my 3rd wipe all I have left is guide and the goons and killa at this point I jus want it to say I’ve had it once
Some streamers flex they got kappa, when their viewers carried them through the difficult task off stream.
Yea stream placing markers on fuel tankers then off stream u complete 10 100 meter PMC kills the same night .. yea bullshit lol
LMFAO that sponsor segment
If you unlocked it forever id tryhard to get it, but they qill just wipe it so why bother
I got kappa, i quit my job, left my family. BUT I GOT 🤯
hey dude was your ps4 name also TickleMePink if so im pretty sure we used to play together at some point like over a decade ago im sure, maybe destiny? i cant fully remember but i definately recognise your name
alpha to epsilon to kappa isn't really diminishing, it doubles each time
Are you familiar with the concept diminishing returns? It doesn't matter if the capacity doubles.
@@TickleMePinkGaming it would be diminishing if the multiplier got less and less.
since it keeps doubling every time nothing about it is diminishing
@@iPodCharger69420 i believe TickleMePink ment its diminishing in use, and not mathematically. Like if u r survival rate is low, then u would be correct - doubling the safe space could mean u keep double the valuable loot u get to keep regardless. But it sounds like a whole other issue all together
LMAO with the unhinged edition, your jokes also got more unhinged.
I'm just waiting until I get my piligram pouch to buy.
How much you paying for that
@@TickleMePinkGaming about 350
@@TickleMePinkGaming $250. 🙂
@@oranrene I'd wait for a sale. $250 is a steal.
I suck so much at this game, my goal is just to complete hideout and get some pmc kills 😂
Tbh this is why I buy every stupid edition they sell.... yea I know most people will hate me for that... but I have a really important day job and very limited spare time.... I need every bit of help I can get to make the game more playable. I was actually disappointed that Unheard didn't get a better box than Gamma... but I also think that the earnable one needs to be the best (Maybe unheard could have become 4x4 and the Kappa could have been upgraded to 5x5 or something crazy good like that).
I JUST NEED 2 MORE, THAT GOT DAMN FIRESTEEL AND AXE!!
update I got my kappa, and with that done with this wipe
this is not true. I've done lightkeeper this wipe and will probably continue to get kappa. first wipe btw. i dont shower.
I am definitely shit at the game , that's why I will never get it 🤣
It's not a big deal.
I got it in 12.9 I might go for it again
Jokes on you, I have a wallet and a dream.
I dont even know what quest are after lvl 42 since i dont care 😂😂😂
never had cared about kappa because my dog ass pc cant run streets
Getting level 42 is goated, kappa such a waste of time
no kappa because it will get wipe.. i will go kappa if no wipe anymore
Slappa that Kappa
I am crap at the game, but I enjoy it none the less.
aww now i see why you made the gray zone video you are a trakov stan got it
Now i cant because cheaters taking my kills to get quests done. But just found ledex on streets
skill issue, accept the fact that people can be better than you
All cheaters huh? Anyone better than me or kills me is a cheater.
@@ItIsYouAreNotYour got 2 cheaters banned so far. but its just empty raids im pissed about.
