It's Day 2 of the Escape From Tarkov pre-wipe event, and once again we get the Obdolbos Stim from Scav boss Sanitar, which unleashes incredible powers in every PMC. Guided.news now reveals what exactly the Stim is capable of and how dangerous the current Tarkov event really is.
What's going on? Yesterday, developer Battlestate Games confirmed the wipe for Tarkov. In the same breath, they also launched the new pre-wipe event. Today, there is another event that brings the powerful Obdolbos stim for Tarkov players.
Lore & Letter: The developers of Escape From Tarkov shared a letter on Twitter that was written by Sanitar. Again, it is integrated into the Tarkov lore. That's what Sanitar wrote exactly to an old friend:
„Friend, I sent you big supply of a modded substance, the one we were experimenting with. 1/3 of it will go for your affairs, the rest needs to be distributed among locals. You can grab it from our female friend. Counting on you (Sanitar)"
This is in the event: If you were already an active Tarkov player last year, you know Sanitar tested the "Obdolbos" stim on himself and his guards. Afterwards, he administered it to himself. According to a german streamer, Sanitar added over 3000 headshot damage -- He didn't die as a result (via youtube.com).
This year, however, Sanitar gave his Stims to someone else. To that end, he says the Stim needs to get out to people quickly. Sanitar's letter suggests that you can also find or obtain the Obdolbos cocktail without taking down Sanitar. At the flea market, the Obdolbos injector goes for about 2,000,000 rubles over the digital counter.

If the effect of the stim runs out, you are immediately dead. You might want to keep that in mind when using it. By the way, 900 seconds is exactly 15 minutes. That makes you an almost unstoppable fighting machine within the raid.
This could be different: Some users report that the Obdolbos Stim works differently in this Tarkov Wipe. It should randomly improve three of the above-mentioned stats, not all of them. We have not been able to confirm this yet, but we will update this article as soon as we know more.
