Guide
You can consume certain items that decrease your dehydration to quickly get into the dehydration state. For example, a Jar of DevilDog mayo gives -99, a Can of condensed milk -65 and each use of Analgin painkillers -19 hydration.

Alternatively, if you play with friends, you can ask them to shoot you in the stomach, which will get you into the dehydration state too. You can patch it up after you reached it.

Don't forget to bring enough Meds or a Propital regenerative stimulant injector to outheal the damage, and enough Drinks to continue the raid afterwards.

If you extract from the raid with a "Run Through" status, you will not fail the quest, but the "Survive and extract" objective will not be completed. To avoid the "Run Through" status, gain at least 200 EXP in raid (by killing or looting) or be in raid for at least 7 minutes before extracting. If you happen to get a run through, you can survive and extract from any raid, on any location to complete the quest.
