Golden Swag Quest in Escape From Tarkov Walkthrough
Golden Swag in Escape from Tarkov will require you to find a golden Zibbo lighter and safely hide it in a bunkhouse. And remember that if you die before you give the lighter to the Skier, you will have to repeat the process again. We have listed all the important steps, such as the location of the dorm key, lighter, and where to hide it:
How to find the key to room 303 in the hostel in Tarkov
Skier’s Golden Swag quest can only be completed on the Customs map. Once you are on the map, you will need to find the key to Dorm Room 303. The Golden Zibbo Lighter will be in this very room. The key is actually quite easy to get. You can find it on the bodies of Scavs. So be sure to check their jackets, pockets, and bags for the key. In addition, you can also search for the key in loot containers.

Once you find the key to the dorm room 303, just head to the V-EX dorm building (three-story building) in the northern part of the customs map. Once you’re here, just climb up the stairs to get to the third floor. Now turn right and you will find room 303. This is a door reinforced with rebar. Just use the key and enter the room. Here you will find Zibbo’s golden lighter on the table next to the candles. Avoid death before dropping the key in the bunkhouse. If you do, then you will have to go through the process of finding the key from the very beginning.
Where to hide the lighter in EFT

You can hide the lighter in the portable cabin in the trailer park on the customs map. Refer to the image above for the exact location.
You will need a portable Trailer Park cabin key to open the guard cabin. But don’t worry about having to look for it. The skier will send the key to the cabin as soon as you start the quest. Just check your messages from the Skier to get the key.
After unlocking the portable cockpit, you will need to press the “F”key to drop it safely. However, this process will take 30 seconds. So, make sure you don’t die before the countdown or else you’ll have to collect Zibbo’s Golden Lighter again. We recommend that you close the door and sit down while doing this. Once you have hidden the key, it doesn’t matter if you die. The quest will end once you have safely placed the key in the cabin.
