Comprehensive Loot Guide for All Items in Arc Raiders

February 2, 2026

This Arc Raiders loot guide simplifies the scavenging process by detailing everything you can discover across various areas like Residential or Exodus, as well as items dropped from Arcs. With so much to collect during your runs, it can be tough to keep track of what to keep, sell, or scrap, especially with the game inundating you with items for upgrades, crafting quests, and more. Luckily, I’ve compiled a comprehensive list of every item you can find, along with guidance on how to handle each one.

The loot guide includes all items found in missions that typically don’t require Blueprints for crafting. Most of these are items in Arc Raiders that you can’t create yourself or that come with a hefty crafting cost.

I’ve left out some equipment that isn’t tied to specific areas since they can appear randomly and have low spawn rates, or require you to go through extra steps, like calling in Arc Raiders supply drops. This includes items that are less predictable.

Everything else is covered, including upgrade materials, crafting components, rare quest items, and more. I’ve also provided advice on what to do with these items: sell them for Coins, scrap them for raw materials, or stash them for crafting, quests, or workshop upgrades. The table is organized alphabetically, so you can easily scroll to find what you need.

Loot and items typically spawn in designated locations suited to their type. For instance, “Antiseptic” will appear in Medical areas.

Each map features multiple zones that correspond to one or more of these categories: Industrial, Medical, Security, Residential, Old World, Commercial, Nature, Electrical, Exodus, or Mechanical. For example, the Power Generation Complex in Dam Battlegrounds is classified as both Electrical and Industrial.

Items can spawn in any container within a location that matches their type. Antiseptic can show up in any cabinet in a Medical area, but it’s not guaranteed. Naturally, higher rarity items are less likely to spawn, even in the appropriate locations.
