Open the The Lab interactive map to see extracts, locked doors and loot spots in place.

The Lab is the TerraGroup underground research facility. A raid lasts 30 minutes, the map holds 8 to 10 players and there are 7 extracts. Entering requires a TerraGroup Labs access keycard, which is consumed by the raid.

Bosses and Spawn Zones

There is no fixed boss, but the map is full of Raider squads. They spawn in groups of three at a 60 percent rate on the first and second floors and between 35 and 45 percent in the basement levels.

Raider squads carry good armor and high penetration ammo. That is why the Lab is one of the hardest maps despite the low player count.

Loot and Keys

11 keys are used here and three quests ask for one. The locked rooms inside the facility hold high value electronics and weapon parts.

Given what the keycard costs, you need a target for each raid: leaving without covering the price of the card is a loss.

Extracts

Six of the seven extracts require a switch, an elevator or a door action. The sewage pipe, the parking gate and the hangar gate are PMC extracts and all three need a switch.

The elevator extracts are shared and require waiting after you call them, which is one of the most dangerous moments on the map. The ventilation shaft needs no extra action.

Quest Route

21 quests have objectives here and none of them are required for Kappa.

Jaeger and Therapist lead with 4 each, followed by Peacekeeper and Prapor with 3. Because the quest count is low, the Lab is a loot map rather than a quest map for most players.

The Lab Keys and Prices

12 different keys are used on this map. Quest keys come first: "Quests" is how many tasks need that key, "Doors" is how many doors it opens. Price is the 24-hour flea market average.
