What is the easiest/most cost-effective way to obtain a particular skin?

As the title suggests, I would like to get the Vulcan Ultra skin. What is the "best" way to obtain it? I'm expecting to spend some real cash, but I'm not gonna spending a lot.

Sadly I believe there isn't a special offer with the Vulcan ultra skin. So, your only chance to get it is in ultra containers.

Well, you can complete missions and gain containers and try your luck at them. It is by far the most financially convenient option and does not involve expenditure of money.

Actually, I have looked into wiki and noticed that skin containers doesn't include Ultra skins. Is that really the case or it is simply people forgot to include those in wiki? If that's really the case, then my best bet is properly wait for the showcase to update. Getting containers is simply way too slow, as the chances of getting any skins from it is ridiculously low (I was expecting something close to 1% but it seems that it is around 0.1%).

Waiting for the Showcase to update is probably the way to go if you want that particular skin, it may take some time but it should eventually get there.

Yes, you can't get ultra skins from skin containers.

as they said above try your luck in the containers and win the skin you want

Note: don't ask players to wish you to find the skin you want because it won't work

try to open a set of 15 to increase the chance of finding a skin!

or at least is because i did this and i won adrenaline alt for Gauss it was yellow tire that time

Opening containers in bundles or individually doesn't increase your chance of winning a skin.
For more info, read this wiki article.

Good Luck!

"Easiest" and "most cost-effective" are two different things. You can get it in the shop (which will be at a cost but you will get exactly what you want), or you can spend a lifetime opening containers and might not even get your desired equipment.

Actually, do Ultra skins even appear in showcase?

You'll probably have to wait for some Shop sale or for some bundle to become available.

Some of them do, like railgun, thunder and viking.

The easiest way to get a skin you ask?

Well, i got 4 skins directly from the tanki x promocode and got 2 from the challenge for which i had got a free battle pass (from the promo code).

^{So, i guess you should wait for an Alternetiva Game to die, how about king hardcore?} 

^{Just kidding.}

1. 4 skins and i was asleep i could be the first 1 in sergeant major to own 4 skins but it was our fault (forum members from a side and me from the other side)
2. maybe it isn't online yet and soon it will be
