Meta Kits for a Fraction of the Price! Must use Barters and Crafts in Escape from Tarkov!

[@mariochavez4722]

Prapor: There is another Ash-12 barter that includes the suppressor with it for about the same price as the one without it. Costs about 35k and sells back to mechanic for 79k, so even if you don't plan on running it you can use it to make a quick little profit. There are other profit specific barters that I'm not gonna mention as there are a plethora of other YT vids on it and that isn't the focus of this video. Therapist: The item case barter for Oscopes and Meds ends up costing about 1 Mil (RUB) compared to buying the euros to purchase one which would cost about 2.3 Mil (RUB). To my knowledge, her alcohol barter for the T H I C C items case is the cheapest barter option if you have millions lying around and want another apart from the one you get for completing Private Clinic. Skier/Fence: Items such as BOSS caps and Leather caps that are used in barters can often be found on Fence's showcase for less than their going rate on the Flea Market. I wouldn't sit there and constantly refresh Fence's stock, but if you're waiting for a friend to re-kit between raids or something it wouldn't hurt to take a look. I just got a full water filter for 30k for example and they're going for about 90k on Flea rn. Peacekeeper: If you're only at trader lvl 3 and want the meta NVGs the moonshine barter isn't terrible. Alternatively, if you have trader lvl 4 and have already bought them and don't want to wait for the restock to buy another you can utilize the barter. I do believe it is cheaper to just buy them outright for USD however. He also has an intel barter that is going to be much cheaper than buying it off the flea. If you're using intels to fish for specific task items through the Scav Case than that barter may be a good option for you. Mechanic: The FLIR barter is going to be a lot cheaper than buying it directly from Jaeger. The M1A barter for Wilsons can be anywhere from 60-100k depending on Flea prices. Tickle Me Pink has stated in a previous video that the RSASS is far superior, but not everyone has access to it yet. You could also go for a SR-25, but it's going to be a lot more expensive to buy and modify it. If you can get the Wilstons for about 4k or under I think it's a really good budget option. The Hybrid 46 suppressor is also going to be a fraction of the price compared to buying it directly from traders. I feel as though it's slept on as it has one of the lowest ergo penalties in a meta where recoil isn't as important due to the recoil changes. Especially on single fire only DMR type weapons (such as the aforementioned M1A). Jaeger: If you have a bunch of Aquamari's that you've used down to 1/50 you might as well utilize them for the Saiga barter which comes with a FLIR as well as some other good attachments. If the price is right the sugar barter for Emelya croutons can be cheaper than buying them from the Flea for crafting moonshine. You also find them in raid often so if you don't find anything else of higher value you may as well hold onto them to barter later. P.S. I really enjoy your informative videos.

[@stepa994]

haven't seen anyone talk about PP-19 zenit barter at Mechanic lvl1 after gunsmith part 4 for GP coin and Roler watch.. has pretty good attachments that u can use on any AK, and cuz it is on lvl1 trader its a very good early wipe barter.. also on lvl1 Mechanic decent early barter is M870 Breacher cuz u get access to Magpul MOE stock with rubber buttpad, EOTech XPS3-2 and RVG BLK foregrip + u sell rest of the gun back to Mechanic and take some money back

[@durff9989]

Posted 23 minutes ago and I’m so excited! It’s like you answered my questions I asked on the last one you posted! You have helped turn me from a Timmy to a timmy with slightly better stats. Thank you lol

[@TickleMePinkGaming]

Happy to help brotha!

[@ryanl7858]

The M4 for 2 x Prokill is a huge pick up for barters this wipe.

[@Rob_Champion]

and with that scope too its a bargain

[@liamberry121]

For Mechanic, the m4 for 2 prokill is a way better and much cheaper way to get the ELCAN scope and any other attachments for vendor sell price. If you buy the prokills for no more than 66k each, the weapon and attachments sell for 132k effectively making the ELCAN cost you 21k. Also a cheap way to get a suppressor for the same reason. And access to the MOE buttpad early on

you can get the weapon case cheaper if you barter for the pistol cases with piles of meds and syringes

GOOD SHOUT!

Pressing tab twice refreshes the flea market too doesn't have a cooldown like pressing f5 does, you can do it as often as you want

[@patateskzartmas2811]

They didn't increase the bitcoin amount instead green battery now sells for around 200k on flea so its not worth doing the barter

good shout

[@Forewarned76]

2 salt: silencer, 4 bars: Sig 223, Marlboros: 20 rnd mags, still gotta pay for a threaded barrel and optic though

[@Buro_O]

@13:26 Don't know if anyone has mentioned it in the comments already, but I find double-tapping the TAB key to be a faster refresh than the F5 method.

[@maxzett]

It is, but it resets filters, thus F5 is better technically. Would only tab if you camp for a really high demand item that's easy to filter

[@Chrinik]

It would be nice to know if these barters have prerequisits, like quests or something, because I am looking at the OP-SKS barter and I don't have it, so it probably unlocks after a quest

[@shadowblaze1357]

Great video, thanks for all the tips! I had a slightly hard time reading which quest on screen the barters were locked behind even though they were in (“) I think maybe changing the color of the quest text would be a good idea and make it a little easier for dummies like me to read them

[@hardkick1055]

awesome vid, thx for your service! @13:40: double-tap the tab key refreshes the flea without any cooldown.

[@chad7431]

that also resets all search filters so not good if doing a barter trade

[@kasauerkrautimgulasch]

​@@chad7431u can set the filter for that.

[@brianpease4957]

❤ these vids cuz my brain is mush and this game has so much you can forget. These are great reminders and since every wipe is a little different I totally appreciate the updates and suggestions.

[@beeradddd]

is side armor actually worth it if fragmentation is potentially turned off? I've been running without it to avoid price/weight/movement penalties and haven't noticed more stomach deaths.

[@TickleMePinkGaming]

Ill do more tests

[@bigcheeseroll284]

3:13 Stomach doesn't take double dmg, it takes 1.05x. It cant be fragmented because fragmentation has been turned off with this new patch. Would rather save 2 kg of weight and use the money to buy a lvl5 front plate instead of 4

[@Kekperator]

There is more inconsistent information in the video such as 30k for scope barter and "btc barter that gets sold out instantly" what is not a case this wipe - maybe it's too early or amount of BTC was increased no idea. Anyway, I like the video there is a lot useful info, THANKS

[@ItsYouAreNotYour]

I don't know the information, but could he be talking about if the bullet fragments as well? I don't think being hit is the only calculation it does.

@@ItsYouAreNotYour I have no clue sry

[@ryanl7858]

[@mrsaltydino4817]

Love your content. Two things i thought of while listening with the changes to fragmentation with todays patch do you think stomach still takes increased damage or since fragmentation is disabled/bugged rn do you think side plates still mater that much? My second thing is i love your shot at calling out the dead raid abuse. Keep up the work 💪

[@maxzett]

13:40 Pretty sure the BC trade is up app the time rn because it's almost not worth it. Rn you'll profit about 10k from it if you manage to get good prices on the tetris and greenbats. Not rly worth doing it, so I guess the supply is high

[@Xemnesvssora]

If you barter for the pistol cases and buy the blue fuel (100k~) and use them, eventually you have enough for the weapons case barter without really losing much. (500-600k rubles for the pistol cases) works well for me!

[@kasauerkrautimgulasch]
