The Ultimate Tarkov Meta: Level 3 Trader Guide

hello and welcome to another tarov Trader video today we'll be discussing a number of options that you should be using when you unlock level three Traders now note these recommendations are not in a complete nor an exhaustive list by any means as there are many options on the flea available besides what is mentioned in this video however I have left some of these ammos out of this video as the developers tend to change what ammos are available from the flea market for example they removed 545 BP from the flea recently so with that in mind the ammos that are mentioned in this video are strictly from Traders I do stream on Twitch and kick the links will be down in the description your support and your follows are appreciated now to get right into it the number one best ammo available from level three Traders is the new 68 FMJ 68 FMJ creedmore it's used in the new gun the 6 MCX spear in 68 X51 this gun absolutely shreds with the round having 36 pen and 80 damage fired at a fire rate of 800 RPM now you will pin level four and level five will eventually be pinned as it lowers end durability rather quickly this is insane as the only bullet that compares and similar size would be 308 M80 and m62 at 41 and 44 pin respectively however none of the guns that shoot 308 M80 or m62 even come close to that 800 rounds per minute fire rate the Sig spear is quite expensive at a range from 250k to nearly 500k rubles on the flea market you can also find this gun in various marked rooms around tarov you should really watch out for this gun to rise in the meta and become a problem in the mid game and even in the late game the swipe this gun is insane the next speex option would be the 762 by 39 PS ammo which is unlocked at level three prepper here and it has 35 pen and 57 damage this round deals effectively with up to level four armor and will eventually pen level five however if you are going up against level five it will take much more rounds to pin that armor I prefer to use the akm uh series of weapons uh and the AK 103 and 104 weapons when using this round the akm series weapons perform better suppressed but are more expensive to mod that way but the ak-1 100 series weapons in this caliber are cheap to purchase and mod when run loud either way this is a very effective round round to use early and well into taro's mid game but it falls off after level five armors become more and more [Music] [Music] prevalent the third one on our list is a round called BCP FMJ in 762 x 51 or 308 this round has 35 points of pin and 83 points of damage the guns that would be available for use would be the sa58 the M1A in the sr25 uh respectively at this Trader level there are more but unfortunately they are task locked Quest locked or level locked at this time so these are the ones that you'll be able to get from the Traders and from the flea market at this level now in previous wipes I wouldn't have recommend using these guns as they were too expensive to modify enough to be usable and with this ammo being as weak as it is compared to its Big Brothers M80 and m62 in order to effectively use this round you You' have to get many many many many bullets on target comparatively however with the changes to recoil that we received in this patch you can very affordably modify weapons to be very controllable and even quite good I would recommend this round and weapon combination in longer range engagements as rounds like 762 x 39 PS will experience a fallof in damage but the 308 BCP FMJ round will still pack a-p punch and can stand to lose more damage and at 83 points of damage versus ps's 57 points of [Music] damage the next round on our list is a favorite of mine for a long time and that is the 57x 28 l191 round at uh level three Peacekeeper with 33 pen and 53 damage while it does have less pen than the previous rounds we mentioned it needs to be noted that it's shot out of the P90 and the 57 now the 57 is a pistol It's very effective it's actually one of my favorite pistols to run but when running the P90 it has an high rate of fire at 900 RPM this is my go-to when I farm toilla on Factory whether he's wearing level four or level six rigs the blistering fire rate it just chews through armor and targets the downside with this gun however is the mags take a long time to pack 50 rounders are great for longer sustained fights but I tend to bring more of these mags as I don't tend to repack the majority of the time so something to keep in mind now we're mentioning SMGs it's hard to miss the Beloved MP7 and we unlock jsps X here and the 30 round mags that we need for the MP 7 at level three mechanic this round has 32 pen and 46 damage but gets shot at an even higher fire rate than the P90 at 950 rounds per minute The Recoil is next to nothing even unsuppressed this gun is the favorite SMG of the aggressive player in tarov due to its low recoil you can take fights at longer ranges than is typical of an SMG and is my go-to for maps like torine Resort that has long halls and Close Quarters areas now next in line would be 5.56 specifically m855 this round received a buff this wi and it is now at 31 pin and 57 D damage it will eventually pin damaged level four plates but it isn't the most effective option to be fighting level four however it is your only option if you do want to run an M4 HK 556 MDR in the AK 101 or 102 variants until you complete a spa tour Quest and get level four Peacekeeper now if you happen to find 55 A1 56 A1 and m995 if you find that in raid then it would be worth to run it in maybe half pack with m855 the benefit of these weapons is their availability and modability while maintaining a low recoil and Fast Fire rate now we bring up one of the most fun platforms in tarkov's history and that is 9 mm specifically this round AP 6.3 and 9x19 this round used to dominate in tarov but it struggled whenever recoil was increased in various patches and a damage falloff mechanic was introduced about two or three wipes ago however the recoil changes in patch 14 have given rise to this fun round once again at 30 pin and 52 damage it is a viable option when paired with a high fire rate weapon like an MP5 or a Chris Vector at 850 rounds per minute and 950 rounds per minute this is a good weapon to pair with a sniper or to take into Close Quarters as a budget option the 50 round drum mags are also very handy with some of the guns that can run this round so keep that in mind whenever you're kidding up with other SMGs mentioned we now come to the mp7's little brother this is one of my favorites it is the sr- 2m in 9x 21 9x 21 PS was nerfed with this patch and dropped a 22 pen and 54 damage and is no longer a viable option against even level three on the first bullet however with this patch battle State games released a new bullet called 9x 21 7 u4 and that would be this one here this new round has 27 pen and 47 damage and due to the smg's fire rate of 900 rounds per minute it is now the effective choice to go against level four armor the last decent pin round we are going to talk about today is actually unlocked at a lower Trader level but we get access to a gun that absolutely shreds that is the 45 Chris Vector in 45 ACP match FMJ the stats of the round are 25 pen and 72 damage the reason I have this mentioned is you unlock a trade for the 30 round mags to use in this Vector at skier level three for two strike cigarettes now the M45 is another good option but it just doesn't have the fire rate to keep up with the vector they're both a good option however due to the sheer amount of aim punch that this round seems to afflict on its victims while we're talking about 45 ACP it would be a shame not to mention 45 ACP hydroshock and that we unlock a peacekeeper level three it doesn't have much pen at only 13 points but it does have 100 points of damage per round earning at the nickname of baby rip rounds when shot out of the vector it kills pmc's incredibly fast when aiming at legs or arms and is a good budget leg meta option versus rip rounds which go for quite a bit on the flea the honorable mentions in this video go out to our leg muta enthusiasts you unlock 9x19 Luger CCI at mechanic that's this round here and shrap 25 in 23x 74 which work in the ks23 shotgun 9x19 Luger has 10 pin and 70 damage and the shrap 25s have eight pellets at 78 damage each that totals in 624 damage per round there is a trade to get the draw it version of the ks23 at proper level 3 and it has five measuring tapes five T plugs and five USB thank you for watching I truly appreciate the love and support you have shown with the likes comments and subs
