Escape from Tarkov: How To Level Up Vitality

Escape from Tarkov character perks are essential to smooth gameplay, upgrading strength and other attributes will only lead to a stronger character. However, Escape from Tarkov doesn't outline specific requirements to level up each quality, leading to confusion and frustration, especially when you have to level them up for tasks. Despite the vagueness in Tarkov's nature, leveling up each character's skills takes little work and concentration due to the volume of upgrades, therefore, don't expect anything too challenging.

Within this guide, we will teach you how to level up the skill "Vitality" in Escape from Tarkov, whether for convenience's sake or to unlock Medstation level three in the hideout. Regardless, it's essential to upgrade the medstation and keep a healthy hideout to aid you with in-game requirements.

How Do You Level up Vitality Fast in Tarkov?

Upgrading the Vitality skill improves your chance of surviving a wound by decreasing the possibility of bleeding and instant death through critical damage to a body part. More specifically, when the character Vitality:

• Decrease chance of bleeding (-60% at elite level)
• Decreases chance of dying by losing a limb (-20% at elite level)
• Elite level: All bleeding stops on its own (after a few seconds of bleeding, it stops)

To raise and level up your Vitality skill, you need to inflict harm or bleeding on your character, whether it be getting shot and slowly allowing wounds to bleed out (healing before death) or taking damage to your character in general. 

One of the best methods to level up Vitality is to walk through barbed wire on Factory. Take a Grizzly medkit with you, and keep walking through barbed wire, healing and repeating. Although the task is easy, this method of "grinding" can be incredibly painful on the mind, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

If you decide this method is too boring, playing the game casually will rank your Vitality up in Escape from Tarkov anyway, In most raids, you're going to get shot, therefore leveling up your Vitality anyway.
