Quick Guide: How to Acquire LEDX Quickly in Escape from Tarkov

The LEDX Skin Transilluminator stands out as one of the most sought-after items in Escape from Tarkov. Not only does it offer a lucrative payout when sold, but it also plays a critical role in several key quests essential for advancing through the game’s endgame stages during a wipe. However, due to its rarity, players need to know the best locations to maximize their chances of obtaining this item quickly. Below, we outline effective strategies for finding LEDXs swiftly in Escape from Tarkov.

Optimal Locations for LEDX Looting in Escape from Tarkov

The LEDX Skin Transilluminator is an extremely rare medical spawn within Escape from Tarkov. While there are numerous medical spawn locations throughout the map, the chances of encountering a LEDX remain relatively low. Nonetheless, certain locations feature a more advantageous loot table, increasing the likelihood of uncovering rare items, including LEDXs, Ophthalmoscopes, Defibrillators, and Injectors. Focus your efforts on these more promising areas rather than standard medical spawns, which often yield items like Piles of Meds, Esmarch bandages, and syringes.

The Labs: A High-Risk, High-Reward Location

The Labs is arguably the best area to locate LEDXs. Accessing this area requires a Terragroup Labs Access Keycard, typically priced at over 166,000 Roubles, adding an additional layer of risk to your runs. Each raid not only costs you the keycard but also involves navigating a PvP hotspot.

Inside the Labs, prime LEDX spawn points include:

The Green Labs Keycard room, despite the high entry key cost, is worthwhile as LEDXs may appear on the tables or in the nearby weapon attachment room.
The room overlooking the garage, adjacent to the garage extract, is another potential spawn area for the LEDX.
The round table near the Red Labs Keycard room, while not guaranteed, may also yield a LEDX.
In the server office room close to the Hanger Gate, LEDXs can spawn, albeit less frequently.
Check by the orange dome in the center for additional spawns.

Buying additional keycards can further enhance your chances, as LEDXs can also be found in Blue, Red, and Black keycard rooms.

Alternative Locations: Interchange and Streets of Tarkov

Besides the Labs, the Interchange map is an excellent secondary choice, with certain areas on the Streets of Tarkov also being worthwhile.

Within Interchange, securing both the Emercom Medical Key and the ULTRA medical key opens up two substantial loot opportunities for LEDXs:

The Emercom Medical Unit, located on the first floor of the mall near the TT store, offers loot on beds and tables, alongside electronic spawns near the Chemicals quest area that might include valuable items like Graphics Cards.
Best of all, the ULTRA medical unit, found opposite the Techlight store, houses significant loot. Access requires the ULTRA key and the power must be activated. However, players may hesitate to turn on the power due to the tactical implications. If you spawn near this location, promptly activating the power can help you reach the ULTRA unit before others.

In Streets of Tarkov, you might find LEDXs in the camp’s Medcases and Duffle Bags or among the loose medical supplies in a small room with metal shelves, including the hidden laboratory.

Additional loose medical spawns are scattered throughout Streets of Tarkov. Check near the main road by a deceased body, inspect nearby ambulances, and search through various Duffle Bags, all of which carry a slim chance of containing a LEDX.

The Importance of LEDXs in Escape from Tarkov

The primary reason players seek out LEDXs is to complete the Private Clinic task given by the Therapist. Successfully completing this task grants access to a THICC Items Case, a significant boon to stash management.

Additionally, LEDXs are required for upgrading to Medstation level 3. Failing to attain this level directly impacts access to the Intelligence Center level 2, which is essential for constructing a Bitcoin Farm, allowing players to earn passive income within the game. Hence, acquiring LEDXs becomes critical for progression and endgame success.

Furthermore, if you aspire to obtain the KAPPA container, completing the Crisis quest at level 48 will demand two LEDXs found in raids.
