Fallen Ending

Turn on Kerman and leave with Prapor's smugglers

The Fallen ending is a full escape route, not a failure state. You accept Mr. Kerman's offer in The Ticket but refuse to help him find dirt on TerraGroup (a point of no return that unlocks the Enough of Your Games achievement). That burns the Kerman route, so you leave the dirty way: working with Prapor, handing over the Case with dangerous cargo and 1,000,000 dollars for his smugglers' hash codes. The epilogue opens with 'Escaped from Tarkov to fall in the darkness'.

Requirements

  • Accept Mr. Kerman's offer, then REFUSE to find dirt on TerraGroup (point of no return)
  • If you kept the Armored case in Falling Skies: hand Prapor 50 military and advanced electronics items, a Theta, Epsilon, or Kappa secure container, and 40 repair kits
  • Hand over the Case with dangerous cargo plus 1,000,000 dollars
  • Build Solar Power level 1 and take the Reprogrammed RFID keycard with Prapor's hash codes

How It Happens (and how to avoid)

  1. 1In The Ticket, accept Mr. Kerman's offer, then refuse when he asks you to find dirt on TerraGroup
  2. 2Work with Prapor: gather the handover items (much lighter if you gave him the case back in Falling Skies), then deliver the Case with dangerous cargo and 1,000,000 dollars
  3. 3Take the Reprogrammed RFID keycard with Prapor's hash codes and build Solar Power level 1
  4. 4Start the Terminal finale from the Shoreline intercom between 21:00 and 06:00

How to avoid this ending if you don't want it

  • •The lock-in moment is refusing to find dirt on TerraGroup after accepting Kerman's offer. If you want Savior or Debtor, agree to dig when he asks
  • •Simply not progressing The Ticket gives you NO ending at all. Fallen is an active route you complete, not a default you fall into

Consequences

  • •You escape Tarkov through the Terminal like every other ending, but on the darkest terms
  • •Achievements: 'Fallen' and 'Enough of Your Games!'
  • •Rewards: 10,000,000 roubles (3,000,000 in PvE), a Money case, and the ending's dogtag, armband, and hideout styles

Difficulty

Expensive in a different currency: a million dollars plus the dangerous cargo, and the kept-case route adds a huge electronics and repair-kit handover. Mechanically straightforward compared to Savior or Debtor.
