So, you’ve finally reached the point where Peacekeeper starts trusting you with the "real" corporate secrets. Honestly, getting through the Spa Tour slog just to unlock Cargo X Part 1 Tarkov feels like a badge of honor, or maybe just a sign that you have too much free time. But here you are. You need that laptop.
Most people treat Shoreline like a walk in the park until they actually have to step inside the Health Resort. That place is a meat grinder. If you aren't careful, you’re basically just delivering gear to some level 60 sweat sitting in a dark corner with an RSASS.
What You're Actually Doing
Basically, Peacekeeper is obsessed with TerraGroup’s old business. He knows they were moving something through the caved-in tunnel on Shoreline—the one you probably visited in Spa Tour. Now he wants the digital trail. Your job is simple on paper: go to the Health Resort, find a laptop in the East Wing, and get out alive.
The "data" is a Toughbook reinforced laptop. It’s bulky, it’s silver, and it’s sitting in room 306 of the East Wing. Or room 308. Well, the laptop is in 306, but how you get there depends on which key you managed to snag from the Flea Market or a lucky jacket search.
The Key Dilemma: 306 vs 308
You need a key. There is no way around it. You can't breach these doors, and you definitely can't knock. You have two real options here:

- Health Resort East Wing Room 306 Key: This is the direct route. You unlock the door, walk in, and the laptop is right there on a chair near the windows.
- Health Resort East Wing Room 308 Key: Often, this key is cheaper. If you’re low on Roubles, buy this one. You unlock 308, walk out onto the shared balcony, and hop over into 306. It takes an extra five seconds but saves you a chunk of cash.
Both keys have a blue plastic top because they're East Wing keys. Don't be the guy who buys a West Wing key (pink top) and wonders why the lock won't turn. It happens more than you'd think.
Getting In and Getting Out
Shoreline is a map of extremes. You’re either running through empty fields for ten minutes or fighting for your life in a hallway that smells like antiseptic and gunpowder.
The Approach
If you spawn near Path to Lighthouse, you’ve got a long trek. If you spawn near the Power Station, you’re in the hot zone immediately. My advice? Don't rush the front door of the Resort. Everyone watches the main entrance. Instead, use the side entrances or the basement stairs.
Go to the third floor of the East Wing. If you hear footsteps above you, remember there is a roof access. People love to sit up there and wait for the sound of a key turning. It’s a classic Tarkov trap.

The Looting Phase
The laptop is on a wooden chair. It’s not hidden in a drawer or tucked under a bed. It’s right there. Grab it. The moment you pick it up, it goes into your "Special Quest Inventory." This is huge. It means it doesn't take up space in your actual backpack, but if you die, it’s gone. You’ll have to come back and do the whole thing over again.
Since you’re already in 306/308, check the PC blocks. There's also some loose loot potential on the desks. But honestly? If you’re doing Cargo X Part 1 Tarkov, just get the laptop and leave. Greed is what kills 90% of Shoreline runs.
Surviving the Extract
Extracting from Shoreline is its own brand of stress. If you have the Red Rebel and a Paracord, Cliff Descent is your best friend. It’s fast and usually quiet.
If you’re a standard PMC, you’re likely looking at Road to Customs or Path to Lighthouse. Watch out for "Tunnel" extract campers. There’s always someone sitting in the bushes with a suppressed VPO-215. It’s annoying, but it’s part of the game. You don't need a "Survived" status for this specific quest—you just need to get out. If you get a "Run Through," Peacekeeper will still take the laptop.

Why This Quest Matters
Beyond just clearing your quest log, this mission is a gatekeeper.
- Experience: 8,200 EXP (pretty solid for a "fetch" quest).
- Reputation: +0.03 Peacekeeper Rep. This is vital for reaching Loyalty Level 4.
- Unlocks: Completing this leads directly to Cargo X Part 2, which eventually gets you closer to the Kappa Container.
- Rewards: You get a Pistol Case and some M45A1 pistols. The case is the real win here for stash organization.
Pro Tips for the Frustrated
If you’ve died three times trying to do this, change your strategy. Try a night raid. Shoreline at night is spooky, sure, but most of the "Chads" are busy fighting over the LEDX spawns in the West Wing. If you move slowly and use the 308-balcony trick, you can often slip in and out without firing a single shot.
Also, check the scavs near the bus terminal. Sometimes they carry the keys you need. It’s rare, but it beats paying 50k on the Flea if you’re broke.
Actionable Next Steps
- Check your stash for the East 306 or 308 key; if you don't have them, check the Flea Market and buy the cheaper of the two.
- Load into a Shoreline raid with a low-profile kit if you're solo—something like a suppressed UMP or a shotgun with Magnum buckshot.
- Head straight to the East Wing 3rd floor, grab the Toughbook from the chair in room 306, and prioritize the nearest extract immediately.
- Hand over the laptop to Peacekeeper in the tasks menu to unlock the next phase of the chain.
