The Wedge commands the Black Division unit aboard the icebreaker Boreas. He holds the gym on level 3 of the ship, and he never holds it alone.

His squad grows with your group: three guards against a solo player, four against a duo and six against a trio. Every one of them is kitted like a top-tier PMC, with 7.62x51 rifles loaded with M993, night vision and CS gas and flashbang grenades.

The fight takes place in the tight corridors and rooms of a ship, so it plays more like a room clear than an open firefight. Bring your best armor and your best ammo.

Spawn chances come live from the tarkov.dev API and update as the game changes.

Behavior

  • Holds the gym on level 3 of Icebreaker
  • Fights with three to six guards depending on how many players are in your group
  • His squad uses CS gas and flashbang grenades before pushing
  • Runs SCAR-H, SA58 and MDR rifles with M993 armor-piercing ammo, plus an MP7A1 with AP SX

How to Win the Fight

  • Bring a gas mask or plan around the CS gas: the squad uses it to flush you out of cover
  • Wear the best armor you can; M993 and AP SX go straight through anything weak
  • Fight the guards one doorway at a time instead of letting the whole squad push you at once
  • A bigger group means a bigger squad, so a duo is often the sweet spot
