Escape from Tarkov is filled with character abilities you can level up and improve, however, targeting specific abilities such as charisma can be especially frustrating. Although frustrating, leveling up your character’s abilities can add substantial improvements to the smoothness of your playing experience. For example, leveling up the ability of “Sergeon” will enhance your character’s ability to heal quickly. Leveling up charisma within Escape from Tarkov is essential due to Ragman’s task “Charisma Brings Success” where you have to obtain level 10 charisma, taking quite a while for regular players.
Typical Escape from Tarkov players sigh at the task of leveling up Charisma, but thankfully there is a shortcut you can take to speed up this tedious task. Although being a shortcut, it’ll still take time to complete, leveling up your Escape from Tarkov character can take time, most people can easily complete a level 40 wipe without surpassing charisma level 8.
How Do I Level up My Charisma?
Fortunately, there is a quick method to quickly level up your Charisma, despite the method being easy to forget and often irritating, the method works:
Whenever you come across any lootable items put them in your backpack, chest rigs, and pockets regardless of whether or not you need the item. After putting them on your character, you can immediately discard them.
Essentially:
- Pick a lootable item up
- Put it in your backpack/vest/pockets
- Exit the character menu
- Enter the character menu
- Discard items you just picked up
- Repeat
You don’t need to drop items you wish to keep for the method to work. Over time this process will build your character’s charisma to level ten. It’s incredibly easy to forget to pick up items, but you can essentially just enter a raid with the sole purpose of picking and dropping items. Just ensure when picking up items, especially off dead scavs and players, that the location is clear of threats, otherwise, you’re going to die rather frequently!
