Loot Tier List - Escape From Tarkov Loot Guide

Some of the best loot in Tarkov goes overlooked by players. I made this video specifically to point out those overlooked items to help you get more out of your raids.
This loot guide dives into little gems that you might not see as valuable, but have tons of utility and profit potential. It's easy to overlook items worth a lot of rubles, and loot items not worth the slots they take up. I dig in and go through some overlooked items so you can maximize the profits you make in your raids.
Battle State Games is constantly changing crafts and barters as well as trader sales. Escape From Tarkov has a very dynamic economy, and changes like this can quickly change how many rubles you can make in profit with your raids. I try to stay up to date with the changes and get them out to you so your not missing out on anything.

The paradox of these videos is that if enough people watch them and stop picking up the cheap stuff, that'll make it more rare and thus more valuable

[@BrassBashers]

These videos are for lower level players anyways, why do all this for baby loot when another PMC's gun and gear sell for 200,000+ with a good loadout? I've seen PVPers run past bags, safes, and even SCAV bodies with great loot in them cause they are full to the gills of another players stuff which is worth more than all of it. The beefy chads will run in, kill, take gear, and leave within 10 minutes of the match. If they die just throw more looted gear and weapons on and go again. I'm not good enough at PVP/ have the friends in game to do that stuff.

[@brohemian]

@@BrassBashers Yeah even if pmc loot isnt valuable, the best ever way to make money is not to die + safely extract. Whatever loot bad or good will add up more than taking time to slowly loot and dying sometimes. some people enjoy looting though, its big part of game.

[@TheJacobbridges25]

Only goes so far really some things will never be valuable some always will no matter how many are in the market

[@thall187]

I found a key to the SEC safehouse or whatever in Interchange, the place with the mall. 93k to vendor. I'm level 3.

[@thall187]

Oh no kills either. Don't know if that's important.

[@xenom9064]

As someone that is more of a looter than shooter i know most of those things but still enjoy watching. The helmets are a weird section because if you pick them for using it in a future(so you look at their buying price) then for any helmet below lvl4 its less than 10k, and for lvl4 helmets, between 15-40k per slot. Also CPU fans can be barter for gas an. at Mechanic, and those are 13.6k, and the croutons are very valuable if you use them to craft Pevko(currently only profitable nutrition unit craft) so you dont have to use FiR emelya to barter or buy them for 13.5k each

[@creaky2793]

Also to add to your suggestions for more loot items you can craft the PSU 6 into capacitors and if you sell them there at night they can usually Spike up to around 15K a piece which makes the PSU worth like 90k

[@noirmorals]

I use them for the pevko craft too. Great pick up imo. I don’t sell the pevkos tho, I do the fuel barter from skier. I have a decent horde of water filters, so super water is free. I like that I have a fully sustained fuel reserve lol

[@thepeopleslibrary9345]

Yeah, some of the use value stuff like helmets break the math a bit. If you know you are going to be buying a helmet if you don’t have one, and you would spend X amount, I feel like that is a better number than what you can sell it for. If I know I run a certain ammo a lot, and would have to pay 15000k to buy a stack, but can only sell it for 7k, 15k is the real value because I would have spent it if I didn’t have it.

Thanks for being respectful, finally feels nice to see somebody who doesnt treat this game like a science but is just sharing THEIR needs with the game.

[@alexandermccabe556]

sometimes i do grab less good loot because i often have dailies for random items and its really nice to be able to instantly do all my find and transfer missions right away

[@aldd_tv]

Im glad you went over the AFAK. those are my favorite item to grab off rogues and raiders as they are typically enough durability to sell well above 20k per slot

[@pascaltomasovic3586]

Dude I make so much money with AFAKs every few days. Also: Always keep IFAK's on low durability and use them for a fresh AFAK craft

[@brohemian]

[@nekokidcovers3039]

as a new Tarkov player, this was rather insightful to find out, since I never really play this game super seriously, but being able to look at the videos and find what actually works and what actually makes a profit is really nice. Once I unlock flee, I will be refering back to this video so that I know what is good to grab and what is not so good to grab. Thank you very much for this.

[@nooblangpoo]

The Rotor 43 is always valuable due to a Gunsmith task. Any gunsmith required items (RSASS included) sell for lots in the flea.

[@mikedahuman]

This is probably the easiest to digest video about item prices. Every other one ive seen is way to complicated. thank you for this knowledge. Happy Looting!

[@mikizaku]

Appreciate your hard work on these videos, they're so helpful. Thanks!

[@imnot9923]

TY for starting from S to F. This is how all tier lists should work.

Awesome videos incredibly helpful for a new player. First wipe I try to look properly!

[@LikeACrouton]

I've been passively playing tarkov for a while, just crafting and scavving while I watch a stream or something. Tends to happen when works kicking my ass and i wanna just chill instead of sweat, but keep my economy up when i do play seriously again. I like looting so I knew about most of these, but there were still a few I didn't know about, thanks man.

[@TheDylls]

Never played the game, don't own a gaming PC, will likely never play the game... Your videos and clips have got me SO hooked on watching this game - mainly via your videos - that I basically just sat through a half an hour of near gibberish... So that I have a better understanding of an aspect of the game and your content going forward! Tl;dr Never played the game, WILL NEVER play the game... This guy is so awesome that I've watched hours of his gameplay 😂❤️

For helmets also keep in mind the "value per slot" if it's a helmet you'd run yourself.

The flea market is just so frustrating. Only having 2 flea market slots as someone who buy/sells a lot is just horrible

[@amarti53]

It used to be so much better. I still think it was dumb and serves no purpose that they lowered people's ability to sell

I appreciate that!

[@Travis-pl7uc]

hope your doing good man, nursing school is kicking my ass and haven't been able to play, but I still enjoy your vids!

[@Grubusss]

Imo best tip is to look closely for super tiny items. Usually the smaller the thing the more valuable it is and i cannot state how many Golden Stars, Bit Coins, GP coins, Golden Skulls etc i have found in a looted area.

[@formally727]

its crazy how in one of the most realistic shooters in gaming history, the market strategies are still more realistic and technical(?).

[@Nikkins]

i just got into tarkov recently! i've never been more addicted to a game. as someone who doesn't dream often i've had about 10-12 tarkov dreams in the last 2 months. I really love your content, along with rengawr, jesse, and some others. Thanks for the videos and making it a bit easier to get into the game and community

[@delldavinci]

I used to wonder why people bought the security vests for the crafts, until I brought myself down a little bit and realized people probably don't minmax like we do, don't punch in the numbers, and just do whatever and not think about it. Which is totally fine.

Thanks again!

[@seanberens5522]

9:57 i used to use mp9 a lot more because of the fire rate for leg meta, i would look for people selling the gun with a mag in it rather than buying the mag alone because it was cheaper and people weren't realizing how much the mag is worth

[@ryd9686]

man i love that u help us scrubs

[@Lithane97]

People buy the security vests to craft cloth which you need found in raid for a task. Bout all I can think of, other than I had a daily that needed that same cloth.

[@iWhiteout]

For the keys, you can also throw the customs checkpoint key in with those as well, believe they vender to therapist for like 26k off the top of my head

[@mrjoehimself]

Almost at 100k subs!! Let’s go!!!

I'd hope any vet player of Tarkov knows about the Sand A items but those vet players are also well ahead of the curve compared to casuals that will never see this video.

[@WasteManagem3nt]

You're sleeping on the chain. Best Tarkov experience ever was when 5 of us all traded some of those in for the 50+ Makarov mag and jumped a guy at the campsite on Customs. Death by 1000 cuts 😅 Great video tho in all seriousness.

[@TheGreyLineMatters]

Something I do, that people often call me a noob for doing is saving knives, 2 brown knives and 1 ER Bayonet = HK UMP from Peacekeeper, 4 of the Black knives and 1 ER Bayonet is a free MP5 from him. ...and if you go into a match without melee, you can almost always come out with a free one, if not multiples, and it doesn't take up any space in your inventory as it can be equipped. So, basically... Just for running a couple raids I get a free gun, I don't even have to survive, just have to make sure I fill my melee slot before dying or leaving.

[@johnatanbirt21]

I love how almost every youtuber that has part of their vid in their stash, their character has all of the best best weapons and gear they have on them...I get it might be to make room but it also seems kind of like an undercover flex lol just made me chuckle

Orb 1 is an amazing key as well to sell to therapist. I made 20k selling it to her at my level 7 Timmy phase this wipe.

[@bennY-lz3wd]

I may have missed it, but I think water filters also belong in the S category. Fir they are worth 80-90k on the flea if you dont want to use them yourself.

[@Airwingmarine]

They do for sure, but I felt it was more of a common knowledge item. Was trying my best to just cover stuff people might not know about.

[@bennY-lz3wd]

@@Airwingmarine oh right, it does say that in the title. Totally missed that.

[@BrassBashers]

I found 3 green gunpowders along with a whole bag full of other stuff earlier, was mostly excited about those though. I think they sold for $35k each, so that was my high dollar loot for today! Oh and the random dead PMC I stumbled upon in Customs that was unlooted with a decked out M4 and RSASS on them :D That RSASS is worth $120k by in itself, I used it for a few PMC runs though and killed 10 SCAVs with it. Luckily didn't die while I had it.

[@mog_3825]

That RSASS is worth holding onto for Gunsmith part 5 or 6. Whichever it is. Can't be bough unless either peacekeeper or mechanic is lvl 3.

[@BrassBashers]

[@Emma_Z1]

There is any way to mark these items during a raid? i know you can add them to a wishlist but isnt that only shows them on a list on the market?

[@Insaneget]

As a creature of habit i almost always scav the same map (shoreline) and then take the same routes so u get more or less the same loot even if its not the 18k slot items, its far easier to sell 50 of an 14k item then sit on fleemarket 1-1-2-1-1 of random items

[@abubaker9x39]

A great video as always, its strange picking up things like bloodsets and cpu's specifically and intuitively thinking they're worth a lot when they're not. As a side note, has the air filtering unit been fixed? is there a reason to buy air filters?

[@BanjoSandman]

He's uploaded a video talking about the Air Filtering Unit. It's technically broken, but not in the way everyone thinks. It gives you the boosted physical skill points whether or not it has a filter in it, so building it is a good idea, but putting filters in is not. The only reason to do would be to level up your hideout management skill, as using the filters gives you xp for that, otherwise, just build the air filtering unit and leave it empty
