Convoy System
Community Mentor Program for Escape from Tarkov
By the Community • For the Community
What is the Convoy System?
The Convoy System is our community-based mentor program for Tarkov! We know how brutal Tarkov can be for beginners - one wrong step and you lose everything. That's why we created a system where experienced Convoys (our community mentors) guide new players and show them the secrets of Tarkov.
Note: The Convoy System is an independent community project and is not affiliated with the official Escape from Tarkov Sherpa program by Battlestate Games.
How does it work?
Imagine you're new to Tarkov and don't even know where the extracts are or which items are valuable. A Convoy takes you into a raid, shows you safe routes, explains the map mechanics, helps with your quests and makes sure you get out alive - with loot! Whether PvE or PvP - we adapt to your needs.
- Map Knowledge: Learn extracts, loot spots, Scav spawns and safe routes
- Quest Help: Difficult quests become easy with a guide
- Loot Sharing: Leaders often share valuable loot with beginners
- Gameplay Tips: Learn movement, combat tactics and survival strategies
- Discord Voice: Direct communication for quick tips and warnings
