This is a detailed and data-rich guide about blueprint farming in Arc Raiders. To make it more effective, we’ll streamline the structure, improve readability, and organize key information under clear sections for better flow — while preserving your original insights and tone.
Total Blueprints: 75 (game displays 74 due to Hullcracker and its ammo being merged). Core Idea: Not all blueprints are equal — some drop constantly, others feel impossible. Focus farming strategically.
LEGENDARY BLUEPRINTS (Hardest to Find) Aphelion (Matriarch boss), Equalizer (Queen boss), Jupiter (Queen boss), Hullcracker, Torrente, Bobcat, Tempest, Vulcano, Osprey, Bettina
HIGH-VALUE BLUEPRINTS (Priority Targets) Snap Hook, Showstopper, Wolfpack, Explosive Mine, Jolt Mine, Lure Grenade, Anvil
COMMON BLUEPRINTS (Frequent Drops) Silencers, Grips, Magazines, Stocks, Muzzle Brakes
ATTACHMENT BLUEPRINTS Angled Grip II & III, Compensator II & III, Extended Barrels, Shotgun Chokes, Vertical Grips
💡 Strategy Tip:
Legendary blueprints = specific boss or breach zones.
Common attachments = random containers are fine.
Farm high-value and legendary blueprints first; attachments can wait.
DAM BATTLEGROUNDS
West Broken Bridge Hidden Vault: Weapon case spawn, raider cache
Lower Bridge Support Rooms: Breach for higher-tier loot
BURIED CITY
Plaza Rosa Pharmacy: Multi-floor, dense loot spawns
Marano Station Breach Room: High-tier breachable area
Grandioso Rooftops/SW Bushes: Raider cache zones
SPACEPORT
Vehicle Maintenance Upper Level: Weapon cases
Fuel Lines Vertical Pipe: Hidden location
Departure Staff Bathroom: Newly breachable high-value spawn
BLUE GATE
Reinforced Reception Puzzle Room: Puzzle-protected loot
Warehouse Vent Stack: Zipline access, weapon case density
STELLA MONTIS
Security Checkpoint: Four floors of breach-only containers
East Lobby Breach Room: Compact but dense blueprint drops
🧩 Key Insight: Breachable and locked rooms pull from enhanced loot tables, making them top-tier blueprint zones. Always carry breach charges — skipping them wastes blueprint opportunities.
1. Container Priority
Weapon cases: 3× higher blueprint rate
Raider caches: Reliable drop rate
Med duffels: Moderate
Black raider boxes: High
Standard lockers: Low
🎯 Only open weapon cases and caches. Lockers = time wasted.
2. Raider Cache Audio Cues Caches tick audibly. Turn on Night Mode audio to amplify the sound and triple your cache finds.
3. Stealth Night Raid Bonus Blueprint drop rate increases at night — community tested though undocumented. Schedule night raids for best efficiency.
Unlock: Explosive Station Level 3
Materials: 2 Explosive Compounds, 2 Sensors
Effect: Splits into multiple explosive projectiles — perfect for area control.
Tip: Farm explosive compounds from demolition zones; Wolfpack will come naturally.
Unlock: Gunsmith Level 2
Requirements: 5 Mechanical Components, 5 Gun Parts
Unique Traits: High damage, limited ammo, classic revolver style.
Best Spots: Vehicle Maintenance, residential complexes, small weapon case clusters.
Hidden Bonus: Slightly better drop rate from second-floor weapon cases.

Mark these hotspots manually for consistent blueprint runs.
Blueprint farming demands patience and focus — hundreds of containers, constant evaluation, and high-stakes extractions.
Stay Sharp: Use low-crash energy formulas like G FUEL (35+ flavors, zero sugar). Boosts long-session focus for:

Shop MMOMAX and keep your raid performance steady through long blueprint sessions.
Q: How many blueprints can I hold? Unlimited. Duplicates can be sold for 5,000 coins each.
Q: Does difficulty affect drop rates? No. Normal and Hard modes have the same rates — farm efficiently in Normal.
Q: Are blueprints vendor-sellable? No. Only looted or quest-earned.
Q: Are certain blueprints map-exclusive? No, but container density makes some maps effectively better for certain item types.
Final Tip: Master breach routes, favor weapon cases, and play night raids. Farm smarter — not harder — and you’ll complete your entire 75-blueprint log long before most players even finish their first legendary grind.
