How to decide what to keep vs what to sell
Learn what to sell and what to save in Escape from Duckov:
Items you should keep
You’ll want to hang on to items that have long-term value or play a role in upgrades. These include:
- Gear with special perks like large backpacks or armor that increases carry weight or protection.
- Crafting materials used for hideout or weapon upgrades.
- Unique weapons that can’t be easily replaced.
- Rare loot you haven’t seen more than once — these often become useful in future updates or quests.
Items you should sell
When you’re low on space or need money, sell:
- Duplicate items that serve no additional purpose.
- Common loot you frequently find during runs.
- Unneeded crafting items not tied to your current upgrades.
- Overstocked consumables once you’ve reached a comfortable reserve.

- Check crafting needs first before selling — some items become essential later.
- Don’t hoard everything — inventory weight affects speed and combat readiness.
- Sell regularly after every few runs to prevent full storage.
- Track market values once the full vendor system launches — rare items may fluctuate in worth.
- Save enough cash for essential purchases like ammo, meds, and upgrades.
Selling wisely in Escape from Duckov is about finding balance — keeping what benefits your build and unloading what weighs you down. By understanding item value, prioritizing crafting materials, and routinely managing your inventory, you’ll stay ahead in both cash flow and readiness for tougher missions.
