Equip Kappa in the pouch slot and move your old container&#39;s contents across deliberately, leaving room for loot instead of filling all 12 slots.<\/p>\n<p>If every item appears delivered but Kappa is missing, finish the task itself and claim the reward \u2014 a full objective list and a completed quest are two separate steps. A seasonal character has a separate shortcut: the Kappa Protocol personal modifier hands over the container immediately for 12 modifier points.<\/p>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/escape-from-tarkov\/boost\/ultimate-pack\/\" class=\"blog-info\">\n    <div class=\"blog-info-svg\">\n        \n            \n            \n        \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"blog-info-text\">\n        <p class=\"main-text\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Buy Escape From Tarkov Ultimate Pack<\/strong><\/p>\n        <p class=\"subtext\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Prown the Tarkov!<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"blog-info-media\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"130\" src=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/EFT-ultimate-Bundle-Pack.webp\" alt=\"Escape from tarkov Ultimate bundle\">\n    <\/div>\n<\/a>\n\n<h2 id=\"common-mistakes\">Common mistakes<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Using flea-market or trader purchases for a found-in-raid hand-in.<\/li>\n<li>Treating someone else&#39;s example list as the complete hand-in list.<\/li>\n<li>Chasing combat tasks while a trader&#39;s reputation sits below LL4.<\/li>\n<li>Relying on Shooter Born in Heaven&#39;s reputation reward to reach the Mechanic level that unlocks it.<\/li>\n<li>Holding a Collector item in a secure container and assuming death keeps it eligible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1792\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tarkov-Kappa-Container-quest-list.webp\" alt=\"Kappa Container quests: Prapor, Therapist, Skier, Peacekeeper\" class=\"wp-image-13723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tarkov-Kappa-Container-quest-list.webp 1792w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tarkov-Kappa-Container-quest-list-770x440.webp 770w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tarkov-Kappa-Container-quest-list-768x439.webp 768w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tarkov-Kappa-Container-quest-list-1536x878.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1792px) 100vw, 1792px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Tarkov Kappa guide starts with the short answer: the Kappa secure container comes from Collector, the quest Fence offers once your traders and Scav karma are high enough.
