Measured from your browser to our probes. Use the result to compare regional directions, then confirm the final choice in your game client. How we testWe time small datagrams echoed by each PartyPing probe over WebTransport. WebTransport carries them over QUIC/UDP, which is closer to real-time game traffic than an ordinary page request, but it is not the same protocol or route as the game itself.Each region gets dozens of packets, not one or two. That makes the test take a little longer, but one unlucky spike or dropped packet can no longer skew the result.Probes sit in the same regions as the game servers, not on the same machines, and every game decides for itself what it folds into the number it prints — so the two land close rather than identical. Which region comes out ahead here is the part that carries over.

About Escape from Tarkov
What ping is good for Escape from Tarkov?
For Escape from Tarkov we treat anything under 40 ms as great and under 60 ms as playable. Past 100 ms, the delay is likely to be noticeable during real-time play.
| Verdict | Median latency | How it plays |
|---|---|---|
| Competitive | < 20 ms | holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting respond almost immediately; latency stays out of the decision. |
| Great | 20 – 40 ms | holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting stay smooth, with little need to anticipate the connection. |
| Playable | 40 – 60 ms | holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting remain workable, but tight timing starts to need more anticipation. |
| Laggy | 60 – 100 ms | The delay is clear during holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting, and chained inputs can fall behind. |
| Unplayable | ≥ 100 ms | holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting respond too late for a reliable session; choose a nearer route if available. |
Packet loss and jitter can only pull a verdict down, never push it up. A line that is fast but drops packets will not be shown as competitive, because in game that reads as a rubber-band or a swallowed input.
These thresholds are PartyPing's own engineering standard for Escape from Tarkov, not an official rating from the publisher.
Which regional directions can PartyPing compare for Escape from Tarkov?
North America East · North America West · Europe · South America · Asia Northeast · Asia Southeast · Oceania · India
The list above shows the PartyPing probe directions measured on this page. Compare their latency, variation, and packet loss to decide which region is worth checking first in Escape from Tarkov; the game's match server, data center, custom server, or player host may use a different route.
How are the good and bad thresholds defined?
The Escape from Tarkov verdict uses your median latency. Its boundaries are selected for this game's timing demands and any usable published guidance, rather than copied from one universal scale.
For Escape from Tarkov, these thresholds reflect how latency affects holding angles, searching containers, healing, and extracting. They describe this game's real timing demands rather than applying a shooter-only rule to every genre.
What is a good ping for Escape from Tarkov?
Battlestate Games has not published ping grades. PartyPing uses tactical-FPS engineering bands: under 20ms is S, 20–39ms A, 40–59ms B, 60–99ms C, and 100ms or more D; variance and loss can still lower the overall grade.
Why does PartyPing differ from the launcher or in-raid ping?
PartyPing measures your browser to its own regional probes, the launcher shows candidate game-server response times, and the raid uses the server selected for that session. Different targets, protocols, and times produce different readings.
Why does only one squad member get high ping or disconnect?
Official support says a group shares a lobby and an available server is selected from the group leader's launcher list. It may suit the leader but be distant for another member, so everyone should select the same mutually acceptable low-ping servers.
