I love Arc Raiders; I’m having a blast running around and exploring, dealing with Arc and getting occasionally murdered but I haven’t much to show for it.

Any tips for good blueprint spots? Things you wish you knew sooner? Comment anytime with anything relevant (please) because I’ll never figure it out by myself lol.

    I’ll reply to my comment with tips that I can think of

    The loot table has weird calculations behind it, but basically you want to hit spots where there are several containers of the same type, you’ll get a higher change of better loot

    The red / yellow zones don’t mean better loot, but higher loot containers density

      In-round crafting is a very good perk (red skill tree), you can make shield rechargers from arc power cells with some rubber parts, bandages out of fabric, etc

        I think in round crafting is only great for free kits, otherwise I never use it. I hardly ever have room for the base materials anyway. You can use the power cells on their own for half the charge

          That’s kind of the opposite of how I play. I always keep a stack of rubber/plastic/chems to do the in round crafting and drop them once I’m ready to exfil

            Once I upgraded scrappy I had to start selling stacks to make room. I’ve not brought back basic supplies in many hours of playing now
