Marathon Holotags - The Core of Ranked Beta

Official Marathon Ranked Holotag table: Bronze through Pinnacle costs, score targets, loss penalties, overperformance capacity, and Tag Chips.

What is a Holotag?

A Holotag is the Ranked item you bring in your backpack to queue. It sets your score target, your loss penalty if you fail to exfil, and your overperformance capacity for bonus RP above target.

Buying and keeping Holotags

  • You buy Holotags in the Armory up to your current rank.
  • You must place one Holotag in your backpack before queueing for Ranked.
  • Holotags persist if you exfil successfully.
  • You can sell saved Holotags for full value.

Why hunt enemy Holotags?

Enemy Holotags increase your overperformance capacity, which lets you convert extra loot into bonus RP after you already hit your starting score target.

Tag Chips

  • Tag Chip: value 250, capacity +400, max stack 5
  • Polished Tag Chip: value 700, capacity +1,000, max stack 3

Holotag vs Tarkov dog tag

Like Tarkov dog tags, Marathon Holotags can be looted from other players. The difference is that Marathon Holotags also define your Ranked scoring math before the match even begins.
