Escape from Tarkov, in one of the latest tech updates, puts additional restrictions on players dropping items during raids, whether it's a squad member or a random player. Battlestate Games continues to battle RMT as more items are added to the no-drop list.

Battlestate's fight with Real Money Trading has been going on for some time, and two weeks ago, the developers took a new major action against RMT, ruling out the option to drop/drop some items of value during raids.

The first items on the list are key cards, EFT Items, and other very rare valuables. The second batch contains some questionable items, as some of them are very cheap at the flea market and may not be an RMT threat. The additions to the list are as follows:

Can no longer be dropped in raids:

Moonshine

Discard limit: 1 piece

Smoke balaclava
Shroud half-mask
Fake mustache
Pestily plague mask
bomber beanie
Kotton beanie
Discard Limit 4:
DevTac Ronin ballistic helmet

Discard limit: 20 pieces:

Vog-17
RGN
RGO
F-1
VOG-25
RGD-5
M67

This list does not apply to items found in raids.

Masks are one of the items players find outdated, as they sell for less than 5k Roubles per slot and may not be an item to adjust. A lot of players are not happy with this approach because it doesn't actually solve the root cause of the problem.

For casual players, if you want to make yourself strong enough to perform tasks, it is still necessary to Buy EFT Items or EFT Roubles from the online store RPGStash, at least it saves you a lot of precious time and still allows you to enjoy The joy of finding items in raids.
