ARC Raiders - Resource Guide: ARC Alloy
Overview
ARC Alloy is an Uncommon resource classified as a Topside Material, primarily obtained by scavenging destroyed ARC machines. As a foundational crafting component, it is essential for creating everything from basic shields and grenades to advanced circuitry and base infrastructure. Its versatility and widespread availability make it one of the most frequently used materials in a Raider's crafting repertoire.
Acquisition
Scavenging: Dropped by nearly all defeated ARC units.
Recycling: Can be obtained by breaking down higher-tier ARC components.
Crafting Applications
| Recipe | Workshop | Result | Blueprint Locked |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8x ARC Alloy | Refiner 2 | → 1x ARC Circuitry | No |
| 8x ARC Alloy | Refiner 2 | → 1x ARC Motion Core | No |
| 2x ARC Alloy + 4x Plastic Parts | Gear Bench 1 / Workbench | → 1x Light Shield | No |
| 1x Crude Explosives + 2x ARC Alloy | Explosives Station 1 | → 1x Seeker Grenade | Yes |
Workshop Construction
Medical Lab 1: 50x Fabric + 6x ARC Alloy
Explosives Station 1: 50x Chemicals + 6x ARC Alloy
Utility Station 1: 50x Plastic Parts + 6x ARC Alloy
Base Progression
Foundation (1/6) → Core Systems (2/6):
150x Metal Parts + 200x Rubber Parts + 80x ARC Alloy + 15x Steel Spring
Recycling & Salvaging
Recycling: 1× ARC Alloy → 2× Metal Parts
Salvaging: 1× ARC Alloy → 1× Metal Parts
Recyclable Components (ARC Alloy Yield)
A wide variety of ARC components can be recycled into ARC Alloy, including:
ARC Circuitry (2), ARC Motion Core (2)
Bastion Cell (2), Bombardier Cell (2)
Damaged/Wasp/Hornet/Rocketeer Drivers (1-3)
Sentinel Firing Core (2), Shredder Gyro (3), Surveyor Vault (2)
Pop Trigger (1), Snitch Scanner (1), Spotter Relay (1)

Strategic Importance
Early & Mid-Game Backbone: Used in essential early crafts like Light Shields and Seeker Grenades.
Advanced Material Production: Converted into ARC Circuitry and ARC Motion Core for higher-tier recipes.
Base Building: Critical for constructing and upgrading core workshops and advancing your base.
Resource Efficiency: Can be mass-produced by recycling common ARC loot, creating a sustainable material loop.
Farming Tips
Engage common ARC patrols in starter zones like Dam Battlegrounds.
Prioritize recycling duplicate or lower-priority rare components.
Stockpile before undertaking major crafting or base expansion projects.
