Find the corpse

The document case was given to a messenger, who is now, unsurprisingly, deceased. So first you need to find his body by following these steps:

  • Use the bridge to get to the east side of the customs map
  • Turn south towards the RUAF roadblock
  • Locate the body of the messenger north of the roadblock
  • The location of the RUAF roadblock is indicated by the red marker on the map. The body of the messenger is indicated by the blue marker.

    Once you find the body, you need to search it for a key. Take the key and follow the next step.

    Collect the precious cargo

    The safe suitcase is hidden inside the messenger's cabin, which is indicated by the green marker on the map.

    Use the key to unlock the cabin and retrieve the suitcase for the documents. Return the case to Skier.


    As a reward for completing The Extortionist quest, you will receive the following:


    • 3 XP
    • Rep. Skier +0,08
    • 500 dollars
    • Rifle Vepr AKM
