While they are technically classified as loot, we will not be including armour, guns, or ammo in this Escape From Tarkov loot tier list, as that is a whole other category to cover. Generally with armour, the higher class it is the higher value it holds, and with guns and ammo make sure to check out our Escape From Tarkov best guns and best Escape From Tarkov ammo guides to find out what to look for there.

The type of items that will be included in this are the following:

• Keys/Keycards
• Special Equipment
• Barter/Info Items/Tools
• Provisions
• Melee Weapons
• Injectors

In addition, we will only be going over items that you can actually find in raid, so no THICC item cases or secure containers unfortunately. So, have a read on to see the full Escape From Tarkov loot tier list.

The top of this Escape From Tarkov loot tier list is exclusively reserved for some of the highest value and hardest to find items in Escape From Tarkov. If you find any of these items, you're going to want to stop whatever you're doing and get out of the raid as soon as possible. You will find that some of the items above are part of the Escape From Tarkov flea market banned items list, but you can still use them to barter trade with other players for other insanely valuable items.

Although there is not as big of a pure-value gap as some of the higher tiers, this section has probably the largest gap in quality between its items. It is where you're really going to want to start thinking about price-per-slot - which is the overall sale value of the item divided by the number of cells it takes up in your inventory. Single slot items like keys, injectors, and flash drives are always going to be worth more than loot like Escape From Tarkov fuel containers, despite having a potentially lower actual value, due to the fact that you can take far more in your backpack. All of the items above are still 100% worth picking up over anything below though, but maybe not raid defining.

These are your middle tier items which again are always going to be worth picking up if you have the space, but aren't quite the priority choice that some other loot is. Furthermore, it has quite a lot of the Reserve and Shoreline keys that can be quite confusing to an unsuspecting looter thinking they've just hit the jackpot - make sure to learn the difference between your RB-KSMs and RB-AKs, cause that might get you an extra million roubles or so.

This tier is largely comprised of the rest of the worthwhile keys, and then just barter items, and a couple of provisions too. One thing which could potentially elevate some of the items in this tier is whether you're doing the collector quest, because then the streamer items would rise straight to S-tier. If you're got to that point though, you probably already know what you're looking for. 

Anything not included in this list from this point on should only really be used to fill slots you would otherwise have empty, and you're really going to want to be thinking about price per slot here. There's no point picking up a somewhat worthless item that takes up four slots in your backpack, if you could pick up four, single-slot low value items that could potentially quadruple your profits. 

So, that completes our Escape From Tarkov loot tier list, giving you an overview of where most of the loot items in the game sit value wise. Hopefully you'll be able to know what's good to pick up now, but if you want some more help with picking item items to upgrade your Hideout, then this Escape From Tarkov Hideout items guide will certainly serve you well.
