Arc Raiders Players Discover Potential Duplication Exploit Amidst 40 Tempest Blueprints

Exploits and glitches are a common occurrence in gaming, and it seems that Arc Raiders might be facing a significant duplication issue. Players in this extraction shooter have been taking down other raiders only to discover they’re carrying a staggering number of duplicate blueprints, suggesting that some have cracked the code for duplicating loot.

Take, for instance, a recent post from the game’s subreddit: a player was eliminated while holding 22 Tempest blueprints. While the method remains a mystery, the community is buzzing with theories of foul play. In another case, a raider was found with 17 copies of a single blueprint.

Perhaps the most eye-catching example comes from another post, where a player was taken out with 12 Epic rarity ducks in their inventory. As one commenter noted, encountering more than one of these during a match is already a rare feat, let alone amassing a dozen.

One Redditor humorously remarked, “No wonder he got killed; you could probably hear him squeak all the way from Speranza.” While the humor is appreciated, there’s genuine concern about the implications for game balance. If players can easily leap ahead in progression, it undermines the entire experience.

A worried player commented, “If this becomes common, it’s going to ruin the experience for everyone.” There are various theories floating around about how this duplication trick is being executed, but they seem overly complicated for the potential gains. Ultimately, sticking to fair gameplay is likely the simplest and most rewarding approach.

Embark has already addressed two similar issues earlier this month, so it’s likely they’re aware of what’s happening on the player side and are working on a fix. In short, don’t get too comfortable with those rare ducks in your inventory.
