ARC RAIDERS GUIDE
Loading the field guide
The field manual for the Dead Flowers hunt and the Soul's Offering project: ranked locations, the two routes worth running, and every super rare item on the bill. Ends 16 November 2026.
Nothing in the item directory, bill, ranked maps, conditions or glossary matches that search. Try an item name (“Dead Flowers”), a rarity (“Epic”), a map or POI (“Old Town”), or a purpose keyword (“keep”, “craft”, “donate”).
Pick up where you left off
It's not a plant. It's a trinket that randomly appears in house drawers, kitchen cupboards and bins. You need 4 in total before 16 November 2026.
Best route: Old Town on Pendola Pass: sweep every house, then the supermarket, put any flower straight in your Safe Pocket and extract. See the full step-by-step route · See all ranked maps
This guide follows Embark Studios' official channels first. This is the spot that gets updated whenever a patch changes items, maps, spawns, projects or prices.

Chapter 01 // The Briefing
Dead Flowers is a brand-new trinket from the Soul's Offering project, with no fixed spawn anywhere. You need 4 total before the project ends. This chapter is the whole hunt in one page: the rest of the book is the detail.
Dead Flowers is not a Nature / Topside material like Great Mullein or Prickly Pear. There is no plant to harvest, no garden or cemetery spawn. It is a scavenged Trinket that randomly rolls inside residential and commercial containers: house drawers, kitchen cupboards, desk drawers and rubbish bins. “Don't waste time looking for outdoor flowers to harvest.” (TheClick)
Session counter only: it resets when you close the page.
Stage 1 needs 1 · Stage 2 needs 3 more
Chapter 02 // Identification Plates
Every Epic and Legendary-tier item on the Soul's Offering bill, plus the scarce event trinkets you'll meet on the same sweep. Learn the silhouette here and you'll never leave one sitting in a drawer. Values marked † come from U4GM's project guide: where a value and your in-game item card disagree, the game wins.
NEED ×2SELL 7,000† · STACK 3 · 0.5 KG†
The Stage 3 wall. Destructoid calls it “an Epic Trinket that's extremely rare” with no fixed location. Best hunting: Grandioso Apartments, Buried City, the guide's #1 Fancy Plate spot, on the same sweep as your flowers.
Stage 3 · Murteta's Offering
NEED ×1SELL 7,000† · STACK 3 · 0.5 KG†
One is all Stage 3 asks: finding it is the job. The clearest direct report is a Pendola Pass pickup; Games.gg points at Mask Fragment drawers in the Controlled Receiving Facility (rail yard) on the Route A sweep.
Stage 3 · Murteta's Offering
NEED ×1SELL 3,000† · STACK 3 · 0.5 KG†
Stage 3's recyclable. Games.gg routes it separately from the trinket sweep: plan a raid timed for storm conditions and check Storm Huts. Don't recycle one before Stage 3 is paid.
Stage 3 · Murteta's Offering
NEED ×4SELL 640† · STACK 5 · 0.5 KG†
The star of this book. A scavenged trinket, never a plant. Random rolls in residential and commercial containers across six maps; Old Town, Pendola Pass is the most-reported ground. Full ranked routes in Chapters 04–05.
Stages 1–2 · Vaulto's + Ferrovia's Offerings
NEED ×2STAGE 2 · FERROVIA'S OFFERING
GameRant warns this one “will be the most complicated to get” of Stage 2. The Old Town supermarket's storage and lockers on Pendola Pass are the reported overlap with the flower route, sweep them every run.
Stage 2 · Ferrovia's Offering
NEED ×2SELL 640† · STACK 5 · 0.3 KG†
Dead Flowers' travelling companion: same residential container pool, same best grounds. Games.gg calls Old Town the “most consistently reported combined search area” for the pair, one sweep pays both.
Stage 1 · Vaulto's Offering
NEED ×15STAGE 2 · FERROVIA'S OFFERING
Fifteen needed, the bulk grind of Stage 2. Drops from the bigger ARCs: “try looting Bombardier and Bastion remains for best chances” (Destructoid). A different hunt from the drawer sweep; plan dedicated ARC runs.
Stage 2 · Ferrovia's Offering
NEED ×15STAGE 1 · VAULTO'S OFFERING
Fifteen for Stage 1. Drops from all dead ARCs except Ticks (Destructoid), the one bill item you'll likely finish without trying, as long as you loot the wrecks you pass.
Stage 1 · Vaulto's Offering
NEED ×1STAGE 1 · VAULTO'S OFFERING
One for Stage 1, found in random locations, search residential areas (Destructoid). It's also the reason Stella Montis appears in these guides at all: its Medical Bay / Medical Research is the respirator ground, not a flower ground.
Stage 1 · Vaulto's Offering
NEED ×10STAGE 2 · FERROVIA'S OFFERING
Ten for Stage 2, and the only bill item you don't have to find: it “can be crafted at the Workbench” as well as found as random loot (Destructoid). Craft the shortfall instead of farming it.
Stage 2 · Ferrovia's Offering
NEED ×5STAGE 3 · MURTETA'S OFFERING
Five for Stage 3, from the opposite pool to everything above: Nature loot from gardens, domes and shallow water. Pick it up on any topside run: it won't be in the drawers.
Stage 3 · Murteta's Offering
Offering DisplaySTAGE 4 · HONOR THE FALLEN
What the whole bill buys: the Pilgrim Backpack and the Offering Display Table design (Legendary blueprint, per Destructoid). Earned by setting off a firework on the Santa Maria Houses rooftop, and gone permanently after 16 Nov 2026.
Stage 4 rewards
Chapter 03 // The Bill
Dead Flowers has one confirmed use only: the Soul's Offering Raider Project. No crafting, Scrappy, workshop, quest, Feat or Expedition use was found in any source. Donate via the Projects tab, and keep flowers you find before Stage 2 unlocks.
| Stage | Dead Flowers | Everything else required | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 Construct Vaulto's Offering |
1× Dead Flowers | 2× Rock Salt · 15× ARC Alloy · 1× Expired Respirator | Stiletto II Extended Barrel I Angled Grip II Stable Stock II |
| Stage 2 Construct Ferrovia's Offering |
3× Dead Flowers | 2× Railway Lantern · 15× Advanced ARC Powercell · 10× Remote Raider Flare | Torrente II Compensator III Extended Medium Mag III Stable Stock III |
| Stages 3–4 | None | No Dead Flowers needed. Stage 3's own bill, 2× Fancy Plate, 1× Mask Fragment, 1× Insulation Roll, 5× Fertilizer, is plated in Chapter 02. ⚠ Insulation Roll CONFLICT, flagged here at the point of use: the wiki says Stage 3 needs 1× Insulation Roll; Destructoid's stage guide says 6×. Unresolved, the same flag Chapter 11 carries. Plan for the worse number: hold 6 until the project is done. Final project rewards include the Pilgrim Backpack + Offering Display Table design, per Games.gg, gone permanently after 16 Nov 2026. One earlier preview showed 15 Nov, so trust the in-game Projects countdown. | |
The complete project reference, all four stages with the Stage 3 and Stage 4 rewards this bill condenses, plus Sheltered Retreat, Trophy Display and the paused Expedition, is in Progression, Projects tab. Values there are cross-checked against this chapter and agree with it.
⚠ The databases disagree by omission: OP.GG had no entry for it at all on 30 Oct 2026, so if your in-game item card ever differs, the game wins. There is also no need to hoard beyond the 4 required unless your own game shows another objective.
Chapter 04 // Topside Operations
Every guide agrees on the principle: since there's no fixed spawn, map choice is about container density, not a magic drawer. “The number of containers you can search matters more than one specific room.” (TheClick)
The #1 recommendation in every guide, with player-reported finds from 27 Oct. Sweep the residential cluster house by house: kitchens, drawers and cupboards, plus the supermarket (a reported find, and its storage/lockers also serve Stage 2 Railway Lanterns). Games.gg calls Old Town the “most consistently reported combined search area” for Dead Flowers + Rock Salt. The pharmacy is just a landmark: its medical containers are not the target; the surrounding homes are.
Run it as one loop: Grandioso Apartments (density play, “numerous kitchens and cabinets,” and also the best Fancy Plate spot for Stage 3) → Santa Maria Houses + Abandoned Highway Camp (AltChar, citing ~700 hours and a MetaForge trinket-POI map, calls these the highest general-trinket-rate spots in Buried City, note that's a general trinket claim applied to Dead Flowers, not a flower-only measurement) → Space Travel building + Galleria (TheClick's most specific Buried City report: a flower in office-style desk drawers in Space Travel).
Hotel Panorama's rooftop kitchen is reachable by zipline; players have reported both Rock Salt and Dead Flowers there, and Games.gg calls it the “strongest backup option if Old Town has already been looted.” Then drop to the southern houses, where TheClick reports finds in residential drawers and rubbish bins.
TheClick's table lists Dam only generally (“residential drawers and office storage”) with no named POI; the named spots, Ruby Residence and Pale Apartments, come from AltChar alone. A reasonable backup if you spawn close, not a destination run.
TheClick reports a pickup in the Departure Building (“indoor desks and storage”); AltChar lists both Arrival and Departure. Work the desks and storage rooms rather than the open concourses.
GameRant's rule is simply “look around Homesteads” (naming Ruined Homestead); AltChar adds the Village. Crucially, Blue Gate is absent from TheClick's 27 Oct player-reported table: treat these as plausible trinket POIs, not confirmed Dead Flowers finds. AltChar also lists Almaterra Station on Pendola Pass, but other guides tie that station mainly to Railway Lanterns, so it's a weaker flower claim.
Chapter 05 // Extraction Doctrine
Plan on more than one raid for all 4. TheClick: “You'll probably need more than one raid to collect all four… they don't have to be gathered in one raid.” No source reports a numeric yield per run, so short extract-on-find runs beat one long clear.
A Free Loadout removes Safe Pockets entirely. Any non-Free Augment gives 1 Safe Pocket slot (Looting Mk.2: 2, Epic Looting Mk.2: 3). Deploy to Pendola Pass and head straight for Old Town before other squads empty it.
Every kitchen drawer, cupboard and cabinet, every desk drawer, and check every table and furniture top for loose trinkets before leaving a room. Search accessible floors before moving to the next structure.
Reported Dead Flowers find in/near Old Town, and a Stage 2 overlap: Railway Lantern lockers for later.
Reported Mask Fragment drawers for Stage 3, only if time and extraction allow.
Don't greed a second cluster with a flower sitting in your backpack. Pendola Pass has no hatches or elevators: extraction is by Ballistic Gondola called from a transceiver (Reckless, Northern, Supermarket, Glacial). Follow the landing marker; it does not land at the transceiver.
Pendola Pass runs Dynamic Loot Zones (Frozen Trail test): loot value in an area varies raid to raid while keeping its loot type. Old Town can be cold one raid and hot the next without the route being wrong.
Clear kitchens and cabinets floor by floor. This is also your best Fancy Plate hunting for Stage 3, on the same sweep.
AltChar's highest general-trinket-rate POIs in Buried City. (Santa Maria rooftops matter again for Stage 4.)
Desk drawers, the site of TheClick's reported Buried City desk-drawer find. If you're still empty-handed after this, extract (metro / hatch as available) and re-run rather than wandering.
Same rule as Route A: one flower banked beats two lost.
Hotel Panorama rooftop kitchen (zipline) → southern houses, drawers and bins.
Ruby Residence → Pale Apartments.
Departure Building → Arrival, desks and storage.
Ruined Homestead → Village. Weakest evidence of the set, run it only if you spawn well for it.
Chapter 06 // Fieldcraft
You spot it by name in the loot UI when you open a drawer, desk or bin, and now by silhouette too: the Chapter 02 plate is the actual item render, a tied bunch of dried flowers. No source publishes a verified in-world spawn screenshot; TheClick explicitly captions its images as official Soul's Offering art, “not a Dead Flowers spawn screenshot.” Speed = opening containers fast and reading names.
Chapter 07 // Weather & War
No source has measured a Dead Flowers-specific condition effect. Everything below is a general loot/trinket claim, treat it that way.
| Condition | Verdict | Why / caveat |
|---|---|---|
| Night Raid | Better loot, harder exit | Community wiki: “substantially better loot” on all maps, but fewer return points, Raider Hatches closed, and no free loadout. AltChar lists it among trinket-maximising conditions (general claim). Only run it if you extract reliably. |
| Electromagnetic Storm | Maybe, sources disagree | Wiki: loot quality “reported as improved, though sources disagree on the size of the effect.” Also fewer return points / no hatches. AltChar lists it as a maximiser. |
| Cold Snap | General loot claim | Listed by AltChar among loot-boosting major conditions, with frostbite risk outdoors per other guides. Not flower-specific. |
| Bird City (Buried City only) | Plausible, unconfirmed | Boosts trinket odds + lootable chimney nests for other trinkets. Never yet reported for Dead Flowers specifically. |
| Lush Blooms | Does not help | Increases Nature loot and Wicker Baskets (lemons, apricots, mushrooms, olives, prickly pears, agave). Different item family: it helps Prickly Pear, not a trinket. |
| Harvester | No link found | No source links Harvester to trinket or residential loot. |
Chapter 08 // Lookalikes
Half the scarcity frustration comes from hunting the wrong thing. These are the lookalikes the sources untangle:
A different, older item: Topside Material, Uncommon, harvested from actual plants / planter boxes (e.g. Galleria planters, Buried City), used for Doctor's Orders / Antiseptic crafting, recycles to Assorted Seeds. It is a real plant you pick, Dead Flowers is not.
Nature, Common, found on the ground around cacti, needed for Scrappy. Also a real outdoor plant, and Lush Blooms helps it, not Dead Flowers.
Not a separate item. One Games.gg update article's stage table renames Dead Flowers as “Wilted Flower” (it also renames Fancy Plate, Expired Respirator and Remote Raider Flare). The same publisher's dedicated guide and every other source say Dead Flowers, treat “Wilted Flower” there as a paraphrase error.
Four stacked reasons: (1) the item is days old (27 Oct 2026) and everyone needs 4 before a hard deadline; (2) no fixed spawn, a pure random roll in residential containers; (3) competition, earlier Raiders empty the same containers and surface loot; (4) Pendola's Dynamic Loot Zones make even the best POI vary raid to raid. No source reports a numeric spawn or drop rate, and no Dead Flowers spawn bug, buff or nerf appears in the 2.3.0 notes or any guide.
While sweeping, keep what shares the containers: Rock Salt (need 2, Stage 1), plus any Railway Lanterns, Fancy Plates and Mask Fragments: they're Stage 2–3 needs too. Fertilizer (Stage 3) is Nature loot from gardens/domes/shallow water, a different pool.
Chapter 09 // Redacted
This item launched 3 days before this research (30 Oct 2026), and it shows. As of that date:
Chapter 10 // The Directory
Rebuilt on the official wiki taxonomy after a full item-database audit (30 Oct 2026): 540 loot items: Common 79, Uncommon 120, Rare 162, Epic 68, Legendary 15, Amplified 5, Blueprints 90, and 1 unrated, plus 26 base weapons. This chapter carries the complete Common and Uncommon lists (all 199, with sell price, stack, recycling and uses per row), the complete Rare, Epic, Legendary and Amplified tables (all 250, with type, sell price, stack, recycling and uses per row), all 26 weapons, 38 mods, 16 augments, 3 shields, the Quick Use numbers, 6 ammo types and every Workshop upgrade cost. Blueprints get their own chapter (13). Where sources disagree, both values are shown and flagged, never merged silently.
Source: the official wiki Loot table (arcraiders.wiki), read in full 30 Oct 2026. It is the only source that publishes rarity, type, sell price, stack, recycling and uses in one table. Counted by type and by rarity independently, both sums reach 540: Common 79, Uncommon 120, Rare 162, Epic 68, Legendary 15, Amplified 5, Blueprints 90 (rarity left blank by the wiki), and 1 unrated item (Expired Security Code). The 26 base weapons are not in the Loot table; they are listed separately below. There is no Quest Item type on the wiki: quest-linked items are filed under their material type with a Uses field.
| Type | Count | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Material | 8 | 7 Common + 1 Epic (Stencil Parts) |
| Topside Material | 46 | Includes the 5 Amplified Amplification Modules Mk. I to V and Epic Amplified Fragments |
| Refined Material | 11 | Uncommon, Rare and Epic tiers |
| Recyclable | 131 | Largest type. Common damaged ARC parts up to Legendary reactors |
| Trinket | 58 | Pure sellables plus project-linked pieces (Dead Flowers, Rock Salt, Cat Bed, Light Bulb, Coffee Pot, Very Comfortable Pillow) |
| Nature | 13 | Seeds to Fossilized Lightning |
| Key | 43 | All sell 100 except security codes (0), Emperor Gateway Conduit (Legendary, 1,000), Raider Hatch Key (Rare, 2,000), Expired Security Code (unrated, 10) |
| Research Item | 5 | Battered Paperback (C), Raider Logbook (U), Exodus Technical Handbook (R), ARC Data Module (E), Frigate Diagnostic Node (L) |
| Quick Use | 70 | Includes 3 augment-integrated items that are not standalone loot |
| Blueprint | 90 | All sell 5,000, stack 1, cannot be recycled. Wiki leaves blueprint rarity blank; MetaForge and OP.GG label them Legendary |

| TOTAL | 540 | Common 79 · Uncommon 120 · Rare 162 · Epic 68 · Legendary 15 · Amplified 5 · Blueprint 90 · unrated 1 |
Every Common (79) and Uncommon (120) item on the wiki Loot table, with rarity, sell price in Coins, stack size, what it recycles into in Speranza, and what it is used for. WS = Workshop, Exp = Expedition, SO = Soul's Offering. One honest gap: the wiki publishes no weight column. Verified sample weights from MetaForge are noted in the rows where they exist (Battery, Duct Tape and Durable Cloth 0.25 kg; Electrical Components and Basic Camera 0.5 kg). Every other weight is not published in bulk by any source. In-raid salvaging yields less than the Speranza recycling shown here, and no source publishes exact salvage yields.
The base of every Level 1 station and every Expedition stage. Sell prices are 50 to 100. Never worth selling.

Every Rare and above loot item in the wiki census, one row each, with the same columns as the Common and Uncommon tables above: type, sell price, stack, recycling yield and uses, transcribed from the official wiki Loot table (arcraiders.wiki). Where the wiki publishes no sell price or no stack size, the cell says Not published rather than guessing. Functional detail for many of these items (weapon mods, augments, shields, Quick Use numbers) is also tabled in the sections that follow; blueprints are in Chapter 13. Chapter 12 is a curated A to Z of selected items and traps, not a second copy of this directory.

Count check, done against the census at the top of this chapter: the four tables above hold 162 Rare, 68 Epic, 15 Legendary and 5 Amplified entries, 250 in total. With the 199 Common and Uncommon rows above, the 90 blueprints in Chapter 13 and the 1 unrated key below, the directory covers all 540 loot items.
Colorful Shoes: the wiki database holds three colour variants, Rare (sell 3,000, stack 3), Epic (7,000, stack 1) and Legendary (10,000, stack 1). Its Loot table renders Colorful Shoes as a single entry, so it is counted once here, as Rare, exactly as the census counts it; the Epic and Legendary variants are not separate census entries. Bronze Statuette (Legendary, 10,000, stack 25) is the 2.3.0 Expedition Vault refund currency; no exchange rate is published.
The wiki Loot table gives this key no rarity at all. It is counted in the 540, in no rarity table above.

Classes from the wiki Weapons page; rarities from Beebom's all-weapons table, spot-checked against ARDB. Ammo type in brackets in the research; most weapons exist at tiers I to IV, upgraded at the Gunsmith, and tier IV can be Amplified. Totals: Common 5, Uncommon 5, Rare 7, Epic 5, Legendary 4. Rarity conflicts, labelled: Anvil is Uncommon per Beebom, Grindout and ARDB, Common per an old Fandom trader table. Ferro, Hairpin, Kettle and Stitcher are Common per ARDB, Beebom and MetaForge, Uncommon per the old Fandom list. The Common and Uncommon values are used here, with two or more sources each.
| Class | Weapons (rarity, ammo) |
|---|---|
| Assault Rifle (5) | Kettle (Common, Light) · Rattler (Common, Medium) · Arpeggio (Uncommon, Medium) · Tempest (Epic, Medium) · Bettina (Epic, Heavy) |

| Pistol (3) | Hairpin (Common, Light) · Burletta (Uncommon, Light) · Venator (Rare, Medium) |
| Hand Cannon (2) | Anvil (Uncommon, Heavy) · Bantam (Rare, Heavy). Beebom files Bantam under Pistols; the wiki classes it Hand Cannon |
| LMG (1) | Torrente (Rare, Medium). OP.GG files Equalizer as LMG; the wiki classes Equalizer as Special |
| Sniper Rifle (2) | Osprey (Rare, Medium) · Jupiter (Legendary, Energy Clip) |
| Special (3) | Rascal (Rare, Launcher) · Hullcracker (Epic, Launcher) · Equalizer (Legendary, Energy Clip) |
All mods stack 1 and sell at the tier price shown. Honest flag: no database publishes a per-mod compatibility list. The wiki Weapons page lists mod slots per weapon (Muzzle, Underbarrel, Magazine, Stock, Shotgun Muzzle, Tech Mod). The slot families below are inferred from mod names plus the one documented special case (Anvil Splitter fits only the Anvil). Treat them as inferred, not published fact. Count: 11 tiered families of 3 (33) plus Horizontal Grip, Lightweight Stock, Padded Stock, Shotgun Silencer and Kinetic Converter = 38. Anvil Splitter is the 39th mod-like item if counted, and the wiki files it under Misc.

CONFLICT, labelled: the wiki Shields page still shows Heavy Shield charge as 80, but Update 2.3.0 patch coverage (27 Oct 2026) raised it 80 to 90. This guide publishes 90, labelled post-2.3.0. An old Fandom equipment page shows pre-launch numbers (50 / 80 / 120 charge); ignore it.
Effects from the wiki Quick Use page, cross-checked against two healing guides; the numbers agree across all three. The headline items: a Vita Shot is +50 health instantly, and a Surge Shield Recharger is +50 shield instantly.

Hard damage and radius numbers are published for only a few of these (Blaze Grenade and Shrapnel Grenade, via ARDB per-item pages). For everything else, no database publishes damage or radius numbers, and this guide does not invent them. Firefly Burner is a Recyclable, not Quick Use; since 2.3.0 it activates on throw or impact.
Confirmed by the wiki Loot table and the ARDB index. No ammunition can be recycled. Energy weapons (Aphelion, Dolabra, Jupiter, Equalizer) consume a whole Energy Clip per charge, per ARDB.

Chapter 11 // The Regret List
Item tooltips show crafting uses, but not workshop, quest or project needs. Almost every “I recycled it and now I'm stuck” story comes from that gap. The single worst offender is an Uncommon that sells for 200: ARC Alloy, first card below. After the cards, this chapter carries the full never-sell reserve table and the safe-sell list from the item-database audit, so you can clear your stash with confidence.
Topside Material · Sell 200 · Stack 15 · Recycles to 2x Metal Parts
It looks like pocket change and feeds almost everything: Explosives Station, Medical Lab and Utility Station Level 1 (6x each), 80x per Expedition stage, 15x for Soul's Offering, plus the Clearer Skies and Shoring Up Defenses quests. Never sell it. Farm it by recycling Damaged ARC parts (drivers, burners, pods), which is what those parts are for.
Do not sell, ever
Only inside the Fallen Emperor. The whole Coupler → Conduit chain gates it, and Gunsmith IV needs 1. Farm: Redirection payloads on Pendola Pass.
Do not sell
The couplers sell for just 100, the worst sell-trap in the game. Farm: Emperor Payloads during Redirection. Safe-Pocket everything.
Do not sell
Harvester condition. Break the Queen's leg armour, don't wait for the kill. Never recycle your first: Equalizer and Jupiter each need one.
Do not sell
Matriarch event only. Crafts the Aphelion. Do not recycle your first one.
Do not sell
ARC Frigate breach ports. Go deep, since 2.3.0, loot deeper inside is higher tier. Needed for Research Station IV.
Do not sell
The High Gain Antenna project totals. Both only come from Close Scrutiny, farm every window it runs.
Do not sell
Expedition Stage 4 ×3, Gunsmith IV ×3, plus Legendary crafts. Refiner-craft it; Queen drops and Exodus zones help.
Do not sell
Utility Bench III ×4 plus Expedition ×3, all from one enemy type. Hunt Leapers on Dam and Buried City.
Do not sell
Gear Bench III needs 6. Farm Bastions on sight. Now sells for 3,000 (was 5,000 in older databases).
Do not sell
Expedition plus four weapon crafts. Easiest route: buy from Celeste for 55 seeds (daily limit). Also Stella Montis Assembly.
Do not sell
Buy from Celeste for 60 seeds (daily). Otherwise Security zones and Queen / Matriarch drops.
Do not sell
Two different Level 3 stations need ×5 each, plus Expedition. Refiner-craft them relentlessly.
Do not sell
Medical Lab III needs 8 Antiseptic and 5 Surveyor Vaults (plus 10 more Vaults for High Gain Antenna). Buried City Hospital + Surveyor hunting.
Do not sell
Time-limited until 16 Nov 2026. The Santa Maria Houses table spawn is the single best Mask Fragment spot. Full routes in Chapters 04–05.
Do not sell
The trinkets everyone sells and then regrets. Scrappy needs all three. Residential apartments on Dam and Buried City.
Do not sell
One job each: Medical Lab III and Utility Bench III. Medical and Electrical zones on Stella Montis. No icon was extracted for these in the research, shown with a placeholder.
Do not sell
Expedition 2 plus a quest. Stella Montis Exodus loot. Looks like junk: it isn't.
Do not sell
Electromagnetic Storm, Residential containers. Also a High Gain Antenna reward, the cheaper path if you're close.
Do not sell
Shredders exist only on Stella Montis, and Expedition 2 needs these.
Do not sell
Trinket · Sell 1,000 · 0.3 kg
Sunglasses rubber-duck variant / Bird City chimneys / SELL
Kill Turbines on Riven Tides (Couriers drop them too). Needed for the Powered Descender and Expedition 4.
Do not sell
The counted lifetime totals for every progression item (Surveyor Vault 12, Bastion Cell up to 17, Hornet Driver 21, and the rest) live in Progression, Never sell tab, the master list this chapter is merged with. Built from the audit's keep-vs-sell synthesis for Common and Uncommon items. If an Uncommon Recyclable drops from an ARC enemy (drivers, burners, pods, scanners), check this table before selling: those are precisely the Workshop bottlenecks. Household junk is the safe list below.
| Item | Why it stays |
|---|---|
| ARC Alloy (U, sells 200) | Three Level 1 stations (6x each), Expedition 80x per stage, Soul's Offering 15x, Clearer Skies quest. The worst sell in the game. Farm it by recycling Damaged ARC parts instead of selling them |
| ARC Powercell (C) | Refiner 1 (5x), and your in-raid shield top-up |
| All Basic Materials, plus Planks and Sheet Metal (C) | Every Level 1 station, plus Expeditions in the hundreds: Metal Parts 150x per stage, Plastic 200x on stage 2, Rubber 200x on stage 1, Chemicals 100x on stages 3 and 4. Sell price is 50 to 100. Never worth it |
| Battery (U) | Three quests, plus Expedition 25x to 30x per stage; also Jolt Mine crafting |
| Wires (U, sells 200) | Four quests (17x total), Expedition 25x to 30x per stage, and every Tier II mod recipe |
| Electrical Components, Mechanical Components, Durable Cloth, Crude Explosives (U Refined) | All Level 2 stations. Durable Cloth is also 30x to 35x per Expedition stage; Crude Explosives feeds Explosive Compound |
| Fireball Burner, Pop Trigger, Tick Pod, Snitch Scanner (U Recyclables) | Level 2 station costs in bulk: 8x, 5x, 8x, 6x. They look like junk and are the classic progression wall |
| Damaged ARC parts (C) | Do not sell: recycle into ARC Alloy |
| Mini Pump, Skulker Targeter (U) | Research Station 1 (3x) and 2 (5x). The new-station wall |
| Battered Paperback (C), Raider Logbook (U) | Research Station 1 (5x) and 2 (3x). They look like trash and sell for 270 and 640 |
| Apricot, Lemon, Olives, Prickly Pear, Mushroom (U Nature) | Scrappy levels 3 to 5, up to 12x each at Level 5. Mushroom and Apricot are also food |
| Cat Bed, Light Bulb, Coffee Pot, Very Comfortable Pillow (trinkets that are not) | Scrappy 4 (1x Cat Bed), Expedition 1 and 2 (5x and 4x Light Bulb), Expedition 3 (1x Coffee Pot), Scrappy 5 (Pillow, 12x per wiki) |
| Dead Flowers, Rock Salt, Fertilizer, Remote Raider Flare | Soul's Offering project, live until 16 Nov 2026: 4x, 2x, 5x, 10x |
| Great Mullein (U) | Doctor's Orders quest, plus Herbal Bandage crafting |
| Duct Tape, Steel Spring, Magnet, Oil, Canister, Simple Gun Parts (U) | Expedition stages (25x, 15x, 15x, 25x, 15x) plus mod and gun-part crafting chains |
| Snitch Scanner, Spotter Relay, Deflated Football (U) | Quests The Trifecta, Wires Crossed, Ruins And Reverberations, The League |
| Assorted Seeds (C) | Trader currency chain; everything in Nature recycles into them |
| Keys (C and U) | Use value only. The 100 Coin sell price is a trap |

Chapter 12 // Glossary
A curated A to Z, not the complete directory: narrative entries for selected items, what they are, where they are, and whether to keep or sell them. Of the 250 Rare, Epic, Legendary and Amplified census items, 108 have an entry here (59 of 68 Epic, 35 of 162 Rare, 14 of 15 Legendary, and the 5 Amplification Modules as one combined entry), alongside event and project items, keys, low-rarity never-sell traps and Raider slang. Every item, including the 142 Rare and above items with no entry here, is tabled with type, sell price, stack, recycling and uses in Chapter 10. The never-sell traps, including ARC Alloy, lead Chapter 11. Use the search at the top: it filters this list as you type. A coloured initial instead of a picture means no icon was extracted for that item in the research: that is noted honestly rather than filled with a guessed image.

Words Raiders use in voice chat and community posts. Not items: they are players and plays.
A player who hides, loots quietly and ambushes instead of taking a fair fight. Playing that way is ratting.
A player who waits at an extraction point (a Return Point) to ambush Raiders who arrive to leave.
A player who acts friendly, then attacks once your guard is down.
Attacking any player the moment you see them, no questions asked. KOS stands for kill on sight.
A confident, well-geared player who pushes fights instead of avoiding them.
Being too afraid of losing good gear to take it into a raid, so it sits in your stash.
Joining a fight already running between other players to finish off whoever is weakened. Also a verb: to third-party a fight.
A player who grabs every piece of loot in sight, often before teammates get a look.
Running the game's free basic loadout (the Free Loadout): you risk none of your own gear.
Not slang: "Don't Shoot" is an official in-game emote line, and there is no official "friendly lobby": Embark has never announced one.
Every Key-type item on the official wiki Keys page (37 on the six pre-Pendola maps) plus the 5 Pendola Pass keys, with the disputed Hidden Bunker Key and the quest-spawned Seed Vault Box Key listed as extras. Global rule (wiki): keys are single use consumables. Standard room keys: sell 100 Coins, stack 1, 0.25 kg, verified where the directory says so; pattern-only values are labelled not confirmed. Sources: ARC Raiders Wiki (arcraiders.wiki, read live 30 Oct 2026), MetaForge, OP.GG, arcraidersai, and the ggwtb and AOEAH tested tier lists. Expired Security Code is excluded: it is what a Locked Gate code becomes when extracted, and it has no use. Power Rod is excluded: the wiki calls it a non-key key.
Key · All maps except Pendola Pass · Sell 2,000 Coins (current wiki; older 1,000 figure outdated) · Stack 1 · 0.01 kg · Single-use

Key · The Blue Gate · Sell 100 · Stack 1 · 0.25 kg · Single-use
Opens: Confiscation Room, Security Wing below Headhouse, The Blue Gate.

Chapter 13 // Blueprints
The wiki counts 90 blueprints. Every blueprint sells for 5,000, stacks 1, and cannot be recycled. The wiki leaves blueprint rarity blank; MetaForge and OP.GG label blueprints Legendary, and older guides calling them Epic are out of date ⚠. Other counts disagree and are flagged, not merged: Beebom claims 83 but itemises 76 recipes, Lawod and PCGamesN say 80, Eldorado says 91. The full table below lists all 90 by name: 76 with recipe and bench (recipes via Beebom's blueprint table), and 14 flagged recipe not published, because no source in the audit prints one. Where a recipe itself is disputed (Anvil, Defibrillator, Vita Shot, Vita Spray), both versions are shown. No source publishes per-blueprint spawn locations or drop rates: the general guidance is high-value containers, Raider Containers and Security Lockers, and large ARC cores. A blueprint's picture is the crafted item's picture. Safe-Pocket any blueprint you haven't learned, blueprints cannot be learned mid-raid.

Two more conflicts, kept visible: Beebom also lists a Horizontal Grip blueprint and a Looting Mk. 3 (Cautious) blueprint that the wiki's 90 do not include; the wiki has the Cautious augment and the Horizontal Grip mod, but no blueprint row for either. Since 2.3.0, the Dolabra, Bobcat, Equalizer, Jupiter, Tempest and Vulcano blueprints can drop in any major map condition, and the Emperor Key blueprint chance from Redirection pods was reduced (no numbers published).
Progression // Quests, projects, traders, workshop
Everything that moves your Raider forward, current at Live Update 2.3.0: the official wiki's 123-quest chain, every project, all six traders, the full Workshop reference and the master never-sell list with lifetime totals. Items already in your stash count toward delivery quests. One thing stated plainly up front: no source documents per-quest XP, and no trader reputation system exists; trader stock is gated by Raider Level (0 / 7 / 12 / 20), not by quests or reputation.
Plan key runs with them in the Key Planner.
New in 2.3.0, launched 27 Oct 2026 and ending 16 Nov 2026 (one earlier preview said 15 Nov; trust the in-game timer). The full stage table below is cross-checked against Chapters 02 and 03 of this guide and agrees with them; the hunt itself, where every item farms, lives in Chapter 03, Exactly What You Need and Chapter 02, the item plates, so this page lists the project reference without repeating the farming routes. All donations are consumed. The Noxious Set is a separate store set, not the project reward.
| Stage | Donations (all consumed) | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1: Construct Vaulto's Offering | 1x Dead Flowers, 2x Rock Salt, 15x ARC Alloy, 1x Expired Respirator | Stiletto II, Extended Barrel I, Angled Grip II, Stable Stock II |
| Stage 2: Construct Ferrovia's Offering | 3x Dead Flowers, 2x Railway Lantern, 15x Advanced ARC Powercell, 10x Remote Raider Flare | Torrente II, Compensator III, Extended Medium Mag III, Stable Stock III |
| Stage 3: Construct Murteta's Offering | 2x Fancy Plate, 1x Mask Fragment, 1x Insulation Roll, 5x Fertilizer | Vulcano I, Shotgun Silencer, Extended Shotgun Mag III, 3x Fireworks Box (keep at least 1 for Stage 4) |
| Stage 4: Honor the Fallen | No donation: set off a firework on the rooftop of the Santa Maria Houses, Buried City | Pilgrim Backpack, Offering Display Table legendary design (Outpost) |
Donation lists agree across Sportskeeda, Games.gg and Showgamer. One guide's version repeats the Stage 2 list as Stage 3; that reading is erroneous and is not used. A 2.3.0 summary elsewhere uses variant item names (Wilted Flower, Expired Rebreather, Fine Plate, Insulated Roll, Ranged Raider Flare) for the same items above. Remote Raider Flare: one guide says buy from Shani for 810, but the currency label and price post-2.0 are unverified, flagged in the Gaps tab.
Requires Raider Level 18 and is managed from the Outpost tab. It unlocks the Outpost and, with it, the Research Station; room and station costs are in the Workshop tab. Sources (TimeSaver, AllThingsHow, FDayTalk, AOEAH, GameRant) agree.
| Stage | Requirement | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1: Research Topside Living Conditions | Photograph any farmland house around Ruined Homestead, Blue Gate. Needs a Camera: buy from Shani, craft at the Workbench, or find one Topside, and keep it in a Safe Pocket | Advanced Camera Blueprint |
| Stage 2: Gather Building Materials | 3x Planks, 5x Sheet Metal, 10x ARC Alloy, 3x Advanced Electrical Components (stash items count; Planks and Sheet Metal are buyable from Celeste at 3 Seeds each, 24 Seeds total) | Red Light Stick Blueprint |
| Stage 3: Safeguard the Building Site | Deal 800 damage to flying ARC and 300 damage to Bullies | (Hotel) Chair Design, 15x Planks, 5x Durable Cloth, Outpost access (Base Room) |
Live since Headwinds (27 Jan 2026), no end date, and unaffected by Expedition resets.
| Stage | Donations | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1: Roaming Threats | 3x Rusted Bolts, 15x Pop Trigger, 15x Tick Pod, 5x Surveyor Vault | 10x Mod Components, 3x Power Rod, 10 Raider Tokens, Light Gun Parts Blueprint |
| Stage 2: Soaring Menaces | 10x Spotter Relay, 3x Expired Respirator, 20x Wasp Driver, 15x Hornet Driver | 3x Vita Spray, 3x Photoelectric Cloak, 20 Raider Tokens, Vita Shot Blueprint |
| Stage 3: Ferocious Foes | 10x ARC Performance Steel, 5x Shredder Gyro, 10x Leaper Pulse Unit, 5x Bastion Cell | Kinetic Converter, 3x Anvil Splitter, 30 Raider Tokens, Shotgun Silencer Blueprint |
| Stage 4: Dominant Dangers | 10x ARC Synthetic Resin, 10x Magnetic Accelerator, 8x Rocketeer Driver, 3x Queen Reactor | Bobcat IV, 5x Wolfpack, 40 Raider Tokens, Bobcat Blueprint |
| Stage 5: Imposing Behemoths | 5x Exodus Modules, 3x Geiger Counter, 8x Bombardier Cell, 3x Matriarch Reactor | 2x Snap Hook, Aphelion, 50 Raider Tokens, Snap Hook Blueprint |
| Completion | All 5 stages donated | Howl Emote, Jupiter, Acoustic Guitar, 5x Energy Clip, 300,000 Coins |
Stage totals across the 5 stages: Pop Trigger 15, Tick Pod 15, Surveyor Vault 5, Spotter Relay 10, Expired Respirator 3, Wasp Driver 20, Hornet Driver 15, ARC Performance Steel 10, Shredder Gyro 5, Leaper Pulse Unit 10, Bastion Cell 5, ARC Synthetic Resin 10, Magnetic Accelerator 10, Rocketeer Driver 8, Queen Reactor 3, Exodus Modules 5, Geiger Counter 3, Bombardier Cell 8, Matriarch Reactor 3, Rusted Bolts 3. One source's Stage 4 lists a Leaper Pulse Unit instead of Rocketeer Driver; that is the minority reading, flagged, and the majority 8x Rocketeer Driver is used. Since 2.0 the Anvil Splitter is no longer a mod; it sells and recycles into Amplified Fragments.
For reference only, Expedition 5's hand-ins (the optional opt-in wipe, unlocked at Level 20, about a 60-day build, hand-ins historically non-refundable): Stage 1: 150x Metal Parts, 100x Plastic Parts, 80x ARC Alloy, 15x Magnet. Stage 2: 30x Durable Cloth, 25x Duct Tape, 20x Mechanical Components, 10x Voltage Converter. Stage 3: 20x ARC Circuitry, 15x Speaker Component, 5x Bastion Cell, 3x Magnetic Accelerator. Stage 4: 2x Radio, 5x Advanced Mechanical Components, 3x Lance's Mixtape (5th Edition), 3x Rocketeer Driver. Stage 5 (Load): items worth 200,000 Coins (Combat), 100,000 (Survival), 150,000 (Provisions), 300,000 (Materials; this last value is inferred from the Expedition 1 to 3 pattern and is flagged). Stage 6: Departure, no items, window must be active. Archived projects, all ended: Flickering Flames, Weather Monitor System, High-Gain Antenna, Avian Alarm, Converging Paths (ended 28 Jul 2026), Phantom Targets, Ascending the Mountain (ended 7 Oct 2026).
Frozen Trail 2.0 changed trader stock and currencies. This tab states the system as it stands at 2.3.0 first, then prints the launch-era price tables clearly labelled historical, for the items 2.0 did not re-price in any published source.
| Trader | Currency | Sells | Notes at 2.3.0 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Celeste | Assorted Seeds | Basic materials and Topside materials; 2.0 added furniture-crafting materials (Planks, Sheet Metal, 3 Seeds each, no listed daily cap) and new gameplay items | The only Seeds trader. Base materials unlimited; higher materials had daily stock caps in the launch era |
| Shani | Coins | Security and social stock: Cameras, Light Sticks and other social items | Took Cred before 2.0. The Camera is needed for Sheltered Retreat Stage 1 and photo quests. See the Hatch Key warning below |
| Tian Wen | Coins | Weapons, ammo, weapon mods | No longer sells the Anvil and Hullcracker (moved to the Nomadic Envoys weekly rotation). Launcher Ammo and Energy Clips now have a daily purchase limit; the limit number is not published |
| Lance | Coins | Clinic stock: augments, shields, medical items; also the Free Loadout Augment | |
| Apollo | Coins | Gadgets, grenades, mines; 2.0 added a set of Epic Augments | |
| Cassio (Nomadic Envoys) | Barter | Weekly rotation: extra stash space (+12), resources, cosmetics, high-end weapons (including Anvil and Hullcracker), blueprints, Raider Tokens, progression and project items | Replaces Ermal in 2.0. Unlocks at Raider Level 25 (documented for the Ermal era, patch 1.29.0). Barter means trading in items and ARC parts up to a total sell value, no Coins. The rotation refreshes weekly, returning Tuesdays per GameRant. Cassio also gives quests: Clean Hands, Taking Stock, A Path Not Yours and Divided are listed under Nomadic Envoys in the quest database |
Cassio's documented rotation for the week of 26 Oct to 1 Nov 2026 (Embark's weekly brief via EarlyLoot): Cauldron backpack attachment (50K value in Epic and Legendary ARC cores plus a firearm), Exodus Technical Handbook (15K in ARC parts plus any firearm), Cultist Backpack (100K in Epic and Legendary ARC cores). Bully Fragmenter and Skulker Targeter became tradeable the following week. One weekly listing dated 29 Oct 2026 still shows an Expedition Vault slot at 200,000 value; that listing predates the 2.3.0 Vault removal and is not used.
| Raider Level | Stock and price in Seeds |
|---|---|
| Level 0, unlimited | Chemicals 1, Fabric 1, Metal Parts 1, Plastic Parts 1, Rubber Parts 1 |
| Level 7 | Wires 4, Battery 5, Great Mullein 5, Canister 6, Duct Tape 6, Magnet 6 [10 per day], Oil 6, Steel Spring 6, Simple Gun Parts 7 [5 per day] |

| Level 20 | Exodus Modules 55 [1], Complex Gun Parts 60 [1]. Capped items refresh on the daily reset cycle |
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Blue, Green, Red and Yellow Light Sticks | 10 Cred each |
| Binoculars | 20 Cred |
| Firecracker | 20 Cred |
| Sterilized Bandage | 40 Cred |
| Recorder | 50 Cred |
| Fireworks Box | 60 Cred |
| Combat Mk.2, Looting Mk.2, Tactical Mk.2; Angled Grip II, Extended Light Mag II, Silencer I, Stable Stock II | 100 Cred each |
| Raider Hatch Key | 100 Cred (historical only; see the 2.3.0 warning above) |
Conflict kept from the research: some launch guides list Shani in Coins (Binoculars 1,920; Hatch Key 9,000); those appear to conflate other traders' pricing, and the wiki lists her as the Cred trader.
| Raider Level | Stock and price |
|---|---|
| Level 0 | Ammo 900 per pack: Light, Medium, Heavy, Shotgun (pack sizes per TechWiser only: Light x10, Medium x20, Heavy x25, Shotgun x5, flagged). Hairpin I 1,350; Ferro I 1,425; Stitcher I 2,400; Kettle I 2,520 |
| Level 7 | All Mod I at 1,920 each (Angled Grip, Compensator, Extended Light, Medium and Shotgun Mag, Muzzle Brake, Shotgun Choke, Stable Stock, Vertical Grip); Burletta I 8,700; Anvil I 15,000; Il Toro I 15,000 |
| Level 12 | Energy Clip 3,000; Launcher Ammo 4,500 (TechWiser says 3,000, flagged); Extended Light Mag II 6,000; Shotgun Choke II 6,000; Renegade I 21,000 |
| Level 20 | Angled Grip III 15,000; Hullcracker I 30,000 (both Anvil and Hullcracker were removed from her stock in 2.0) |
| Raider Level | Stock and price |
|---|---|
| Level 0 | Bandage 750; Adrenaline Shot 900; Shield Recharger 1,560; Combat Mk.1, Looting Mk.1 and Tactical Mk.1 at 1,920 each; Light Shield 1,920 |
| Level 7 | Herbal Bandage 2,700; Surge Shield Recharger 3,600; Combat Mk.2, Looting Mk.2 and Tactical Mk.2 at 6,000 each |
| Level 12 | Defibrillator 3,000; Medium Shield 6,000; Sterilized Bandage 6,000 |
| Level 20 | Heavy Shield 16,500 |
| Raider Level | Stock and price |
|---|---|
| Level 0 | Light Sticks, all colours, 450 each; Light Impact Grenade 810; Noisemaker 1,920; Recorder 3,000 |
| Level 7 | Gas Mine 810; Gas Grenade 810; Door Blocker 810; Remote Raider Flare 810; Pulse Mine 1,410; Barricade Kit 1,920; Seeker Grenade 1,920; Snap Blast Grenade 2,400; Jolt Mine 2,550; Smoke Grenade 3,000; Heavy Fuze Grenade 4,800; Trailblazer Grenade 4,800; Deadline (Mine) 15,000 |
| Level 12 | Zipline 3,000 (one gadget table says 1,920, flagged) |
Settled by multi-source consensus. GameBrief's crafting guide (updated 28 Oct 2026) states 2.3.0 changed no recipes or station costs, so these stand at 2.3.0. No quest unlocks a Workshop station; stations are built with materials. The Outpost is unlocked by the Sheltered Retreat project (Projects tab), not by a trader quest.
| Station | Level 1 (build) | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Workbench | Free, after 1 round played. Level 1 only, not upgradeable | |||
| Gunsmith | 20x Metal Parts, 30x Rubber Parts | 3x Rusted Tools, 5x Mechanical Components, 8x Wasp Driver | 3x Rusted Gear, 5x Advanced Mechanical Components, 4x Sentinel Firing Core | 3x Radial Press, 3x Magnetic Accelerator, 1x Emperor Modulator (2.0; requires Outpost Level 4) |
| Gear Bench | 25x Plastic Parts, 30x Fabric | 3x Power Cable, 5x Electrical Components, 5x Hornet Driver | 3x Industrial Battery, 5x Advanced Electrical Components, 6x Bastion Cell | |
| Medical Lab | 50x Fabric, 6x ARC Alloy | 2x Cracked Bioscanner, 5x Durable Cloth, 8x Tick Pod | 3x Rusted Shut Medical Kit, 8x Antiseptic, 5x Surveyor Vault | |
| Explosives Station | 50x Chemicals, 6x ARC Alloy | 3x Synthesized Fuel, 5x Crude Explosives, 5x Pop Trigger | 3x Laboratory Reagents, 5x Explosive Compound, 3x Rocketeer Driver | |
| Utility Station | 50x Plastic Parts, 6x ARC Alloy | 2x Damaged Heat Sink, 5x Electrical Components, 6x Snitch Scanner | 3x Fried Motherboard, 5x Advanced Electrical Components, 4x Leaper Pulse Unit | |
| Refiner | 60x Metal Parts, 5x ARC Powercell | 3x Toaster, 5x ARC Motion Core, 8x Fireball Burner | 3x Motor, 10x ARC Circuitry, 6x Bombardier Cell | |
| Research Station (2.0) | 35x Planks, 5x Battered Paperback, 3x Mini Pump | 3x Calculator, 3x Raider Logbook, 5x Skulker Targeter | 3x Differential Microphone, 3x Exodus Technical Handbook, 6x Bully Fragmenter | 3x Thermal Shaker, 3x ARC Data Module, 1x Frigate Inductor |
Research Station: needs the Outpost, and its level cap equals your Outpost level. L1 unlocks Blueprint Crafting and Design Crafting; L4 unlocks Amplified Research. Gunsmith 4 plus Research Station 4 unlock Amplified Weapons (a 5th weapon tier; 15 weapons at 2.0 launch; amplify at the Gunsmith's Weapon Upgrades tab for 1x Amplification Module of the weapon's rarity, and the weapon must be Tier IV first).
| Step | Cost |
|---|---|
| Level 1 Base Room | Free via Sheltered Retreat: 42 furniture slots and 8 station slots (per TheClick) |
| Level 1 to 2 | 3x Steel Cable, 20x Sheet Metal, 3x Cable Strippers |
| Level 2 to 3 | 3x Epoxy Buckets, 35x Planks, 3x Hand Drills |
| Level 3 to 4 | 40x Sheet Metal, 3x Laser Levels, 3x Insulation Rolls |
Room design choice does not change the cost. Stash: starts at 64 slots, +24 per upgrade level, max Level 12 = 328 slots at 2.0, plus up to +60 permanent from past Expeditions; Nomad +12 offers are temporary and reset on departure.
| Output | Ingredients | Refiner level |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanical Components | 7x Metal Parts, 3x Rubber Parts | 1 |
| Electrical Components | 8x Plastic Parts, 4x Rubber Parts | 1 |
| Durable Cloth | 14x Fabric | 1 |
| Crude Explosives | 6x Chemicals | 1 |
| Advanced Electrical Components | 3x Wires, 2x Electrical Components | 2 |
| Advanced Mechanical Components | 2x Steel Spring, 2x Mechanical Components | 2 |
| Mod Components | 2x Steel Spring, 2x Mechanical Components (identical recipe, confirmed) | 3 per the Fandom blueprint list, 2 per the wiki Workshop list, flagged |
| Antiseptic | 10x Chemicals, 2x Great Mullein | 2 |
| ARC Circuitry | 8x ARC Alloy | 2 (one guide claims Refiner 3, flagged) |
| ARC Motion Core | 8x ARC Alloy | 2 |
| Explosive Compound | 2x Crude Explosives, 2x Oil | 2 |
| Light, Medium and Heavy Gun Parts | 4x Simple Gun Parts each (blueprint required) | 2 |
| Magnetic Accelerator | 2x Advanced Mechanical Components, 2x ARC Motion Core | 3 |
| Power Rod | 2x Advanced Electrical Components, 2x ARC Circuitry | 3 |
| Complex Gun Parts | 2x Light, 2x Medium and 2x Heavy Gun Parts (blueprint required) | 3 |
The bootstrap problem: Refiner L3 itself costs 10x ARC Circuitry, so your first Circuitry must come from loot or recycling, or from Refiner L2 crafts.
| Item (worked examples) | Recycle, full yield in Speranza | Salvage, reduced in-raid | Sell |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ferro I | 2x Metal Parts, 1x Rubber Part | 2x Metal Parts | 475 Coins (Ferro IV: 2,900) |
| Mechanical Components | 3x Metal Parts, 2x Rubber Parts | 3x Metal Parts | |
| ARC Circuitry | 2x ARC Alloy | 1x ARC Alloy | |
| Antiseptic | 10x Chemicals | 5x Chemicals | |
| Alarm Clock | 6x Plastic Parts, 1x Processor | 1x Processor | 1,000 Coins |

Full per-item yield tables for all items live in the databases (official wiki item pages, ARDB, OP.GG, MetaForge); the research did not scrape them item by item, and this guide does not invent the rest.
What he collects while you are Topside: Metal Parts, Fabric, Plastic Parts, Chemicals, Rubber Parts and Assorted Seeds. Rules: at least 1 minute in a round is required; the time-based amount maxes at over 15 minutes in-round; he fills up after 5 rounds; he does not collect while you are offline or idle. Per-resource yield at over 15 minutes rises with level, from 12 at L1 to 16 at L5 on the higher of the wiki's two columns (extracted / not extracted; the text extraction of the wiki table appears to invert the column order, so verify in game), and Seeds rise from 5 to 13 across L1 to L5. Expedition veterans sometimes get higher values. Flashpoint added a Scrappy Feeding Boost (feeding certain items broadens what he collects); its specifics were not captured in the research and are flagged in the Gaps tab.
| Level | Name | Upgrade cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fledgling | Starting level, no cost |
| 2 | Forager | 1x Dog Collar |
| 3 | Scavenger | 3x Lemon, 3x Apricot |
| 4 | Treasure Hunter | 6x Prickly Pear, 6x Olives, 1x Cat Bed |
| 5 | Master Hoarder | 12x Apricot, 12x Mushroom, 3x Very Comfortable Pillow |
Lifetime Scrappy totals: Apricot 15, Lemon 3, Olives 6, Prickly Pear 6, Mushroom 12, Dog Collar 1, Cat Bed 1, Very Comfortable Pillow 3. The L5 cost of 12x Apricot is the consensus of about 9 sources plus the wiki. Flagged outlier: Fandom's Workshop page lists L3 as 5x Lemon and 5x Apricot, contradicted by all other sources, so the consensus 3 and 3 is used.
This is the progression-wide master list: every item the quests, projects, Workshop and Scrappy need, with the lifetime total across all of those uses. It is merged with Chapter 11, Keep or Sell, not a rival to it: Chapter 11 leads with the item cards and the safe-to-sell lists for clearing your stash day to day, and this tab carries the counted totals for long-term planning. Both point at each other; where the numbers come from the same research, they agree. Tap Need on any row to pin the item.

This Progression area is transcribed from the completed progression research compiled 30 Oct 2026, current at Live Update 2.3.0: the official ARC Raiders wiki first (Quests, Workshop, Traders), cross-checked against Embark's Frozen Trail 2.0 notes, arcraiders.help, MetaForge, OP.GG, ARDB and the reputable quest, trader and crafting guides named below. Every value carries the hedge its source carries; single-source and conflicting values are flagged in place, never silently resolved.
No live in-game verification was possible for the research; everything is from published sources as flagged, read 30 Oct 2026. When a source and your game disagree, your game wins.
Chapter 14 // Cartography
Choose a map, tick what you're looking for in the checklist, and the map points out every reported area for it, tick as many as you like. Under each map sits its complete data: every named place, every named Return Point, loot tiers, locked rooms, conditions, events and the top route, with source conflicts printed as conflicts. Open the full map view and the top bar gets out of the way completely. Everything works with one thumb, and changing map or checklist never reloads the page.
Tap to open the checklist. Tick everything you want pointed out, you can tick more than one.
Tap the map, or the Expand button above, for the full-screen view. Use + and − to zoom, or pinch. On this page, one finger scrolls past the map; in the full map view, one finger moves the map.
No places match what's ticked. Tick something else, or show everything on this map.
Tick everything you want pointed out on the map. Select all that apply.
Chapter 16 // Key Planner
Tick the keys in your stash. The planner chains them by map, orders the rooms inside each run geographically so you never cross a map twice, and ranks the runs by tested payoff.
The full catalogue: 42 keys. The official wiki Keys page lists 37 usable Key-type items on the six pre-Pendola maps, and Pendola Pass adds 5. 41 are confirmed obtainable: Hotel Keycard No. 404 is listed but unconfirmed. Two extras sit below the catalogue: the disputed Hidden Bunker Key (single source) and the quest-spawned Seed Vault Box Key.
Global rule (official wiki, Keys page): keys are single use consumables used to access doors, rooms and hatches across all maps. One key, one opening, including multi-door keys: one key per door.
Standard room keys sell for 100 Coins, stack 1, 0.25 kg. That pattern is verified on individual wiki pages (Dam Control Tower, Town Hall, Trench Tower, Secure Storage) and on MetaForge (all 4 Blue Gate room keys). Where a value only follows the pattern and was not individually verified, this planner labels it not confirmed rather than presenting it as fact. Value tiers come from two tested tier lists (ggwtb and AOEAH) plus the ggwtb Riven Tides test: where they disagree, the key says so instead of carrying one rank. Full per-key detail, with sources, is in the key directory at the end of Chapter 12.
The Hatch Key is not a room key. It buys you an exit, so it gets its own call.
Restock: Shani sells it for 9,000 Coins, 2 per day (current wiki). Or craft it: Utility Station 2 plus the Traveling Tinkerer skill, 1x Advanced Electrical Components and 3x Sensors. Also a reward from six quests, including Cold Storage, Hatch Repairs and The Trifecta.
Hidden Bunker, the map condition, needs NO key. It opens server-wide when Raiders activate 4 rooftop antennas (random rooftop spawns, one per cardinal direction), then download data from 8 terminals inside. The event runs about 40 minutes, and there are no active Raider Hatches during it. That is separate from the disputed key item listed below.
Locked Gate codes are not room keys. Each code is one of 4, submitted at the Gate Control Room terminal during the Locked Gate condition only. All 4 different codes are needed. They sell for 0, and extracting with one turns it into an Expired Security Code.
Seed Vault Box Key is quest-spawned in-raid only (Last Entry). It is listed so the catalogue is complete: it never sits in your stash between raids.
Two-key chain at the Port Authority Building: the Classified Records Keycard opens the outer door, and the Secure Storage Keycard opens the inner door inside it. The planner warns you if you tick only one of the pair. Hotel rooms can contain further hotel keycards, so the hotel keys chain: 102 and 107 can each hold the other, or a 208.
Pendola Pass unlocks after 25 rounds played (guides). Its loot zones are dynamic: check the raid map, there is no permanently rich area. No Raider Hatches on this map.
Tick the keys you hold above, then tap Plan my runs.
Your runs come back grouped by map, rooms in geographic visit order, best tested payoff first, one raid per map.
What this guide is, how it is checked, and every source behind it, kept out of the chapters.
Open Progression: the full 123-quest database, projects (Soul's Offering, Sheltered Retreat, Trophy Display, Expedition paused), all six traders, the Workshop reference and the master never-sell list.
Open the Key Planner (Chapter 16): tick the keys you hold and it builds your runs by map, best documented payoff first, each run ending at a documented exit.
Arc Raiders Guide is an unofficial, fan-made field guide by BRENLA Guides, built around the Soul's Offering project and the Dead Flowers hunt. ARC Raiders and all item art are trademarks and artwork of Embark Studios.
Guide compiled 30 October 2026. ARC Raiders is a live game: spawns, conditions and the project itself can change with any patch. When a source and your game disagree, your game wins.
Raider slang is defined at the end of Chapter 12 (Glossary A–Z).
Living guide, version 2.3.0. Current to patch 2.3.0 (Live Update 2.3.0, 27 October 2026). Last updated 30 October 2026. Official channels last checked 30 October 2026, with a daily check running. Latest official news seen: "One year anniversary of ARC Raiders" (30 Oct 2026).
Prices and spawns can change with any patch. Where two databases disagree, this guide shows both values and flags it with ⚠ instead of picking one silently.
Open Chapter 15, Official Updates, for the current patch notes and Embark's official channels.
Where a third-party stat disagrees with an official source, the official source is used and the disagreement is flagged with ⚠, never merged silently.
Item data: the complete item-database audit of 30 October 2026, built on the official wiki Loot table (540 loot items: Common 79, Uncommon 120, Rare 162, Epic 68, Legendary 15, Amplified 5, Blueprints 90, 1 unrated), cross-checked against OP.GG, MetaForge, ARDB and Beebom. Correction to earlier editions: the old OP.GG 581 figure and its rarity splits (174 Rare, 70 Epic, 97 Legendary, 83 blueprints) are unsourceable. OP.GG lists 581 entries including every weapon tier as its own entry and publishes no rarity in its list view, so those splits have been removed and the directory rebuilt on the wiki taxonomy. Conflicts are published as labelled conflicts, never silent picks: Insulation Roll 1x (wiki) vs 6x (Destructoid), Gunsmith Level 3 has two cost sets, and Heavy Shield charge is published as 90, labelled post-2.3.0, against the wiki Shields page value of 80. No source publishes per-item spawn locations, drop rates, bulk item weights or in-raid salvage yields, and the guide says so instead of inventing them.
Item icons via MetaForge, the ARC Raiders community wiki (arcraiders.wiki) and the ARC Tracker item database (cdn.arctracker.io: Advanced ARC Powercell, ARC Alloy, Expired Respirator, Remote Raider Flare, Fertilizer). All icons are downloaded and embedded in this guide, so no image depends on an external link. Items with no extracted icon (for example Dog Collar, Rusted Shut Medical Kit, Fried Motherboard, the Wasp, Hornet and Snitch Drivers, Motor, Rusted Gear, Laboratory Reagents, Industrial Battery, Raider Hatch Key and the Rare keys) are shown with a coloured-initial placeholder and named in Chapter 12.
