Escape from Tarkov More Details about 0.9 Patch

Escape from Tarkov 0.9 Patch adds first scav boss - the Dealmaker, flashbang and smoke grenades, armbands for ID, new weapons and equipment, Nvidia Highlights, and much more new stuff and fixes.

Dealmaker, first of the planned Scav bosses, who runs a small but capable gang of four. According to our idea, the behavior of all bosses, if compared against regular Scavs, will be more complex and thoughtful. In case of heavy casualties they can rally other Scavs to their assistance, and tend to use a more advanced combat equipment. For instance, the Dealmaker’s gang arsenal features a variety of ranged and close-combat weapons, grenades, and all of the gang members use medical supplies when necessary. The appearance of the boss, clad in leather jacket, is more aggressive and charismatic.
