Table of Contents
Introduction
Escape from Tarkov: The Interchange is situated at the junction of Tarkov’s main transport routes, connecting its port to its industrialized outskirts – known in-game as Customs. At its heart lies “ULTRA”, a shopping mall featuring numerous small shops (everything from provisions and medicines to jewelry and weapons) plus three hypermarket-sized chains: OLI, GOSHAN and IDEA. On the top floor lies Killa, an armored Scav Boss who poses a serious challenge even for those well-equipped with weapons.
Killa can be defeated and provides access to some of the most valuable and expensive helmets and armors in the game, such as Maska 1Sch with face shield and modified 6B13 M assault armour (Killa’s version is lighter, doesn’t restrict movement as much and is less protected). Due to his bounty of loot, Killa is popular among squads of players which makes Interchange raids especially hazardous for solo Raiders; each raid lasts 55 minutes with 9-14 players plus multiple NPC Scavs scattered around.
Points of interest
The Interchange offers visitors a wealth of attractions, such as its Power Station and expansive shopping mall with hundreds of small shops.

| The Power Station, which provided the mall with electricity, can be found here. This area contains several small buildings such as maintenance rooms, guard buildings and shacks, plus the large power station building itself. You may access this point through a black SUV parked at the back; it costs 3000 Roubles.

It became popular among Scavs, PMCs and other Slavic people to “purchase their uniforms,” including the Adik Tracksuit..*The Ragman’s “Stylish one” Quest which requires you to kill Killa Scav boss 100 more times is unrelated to ADIK; however it still awards you with an Adik Tracksuit as part of that reward.
