ARC Raiders Assault Rifles

Kettle

The Kettle uses light ammo and has a high fire rate, making it one of the easiest rifles to control in early raids.
It is strong in close-to-mid-range PvP, but its low armor penetration means it struggles against heavily plated ARC robots.
You can obtain the Kettle by completing early trader tasks for Shani or looting common weapon crates in mobility outposts.

Rattler

The Rattler is a fully automatic medium-ammo assault rifle that offers balanced damage and dependable mid-range pressure.
It has moderate armor penetration, allowing it to perform better than light-ammo rifles when fighting ARC machines.
You can get the Rattler by finishing the first core quest, which grants it as a guaranteed starter reward.

Arpeggio

The Arpeggio fires in controlled 3-round bursts, giving it strong accuracy and recoil stability in mid-range combat.
It uses medium ammo and becomes significantly stronger when paired with stability or recoil-reducing attachments.
You can get the Arpeggio by looting Spaceport data-room weapon lockers or completing mid-tier combat jobs for Tian Wen.

Tempest

Tempest is a high-fire-rate assault rifle that remains competitive in both PvE and PvP due to its accuracy and fast handling.
It has a reliable recoil pattern, making it effective for tracking moving targets without heavy modification.
You can get Tempest from reinforced tech crates inside Spaceport towers or high-tier warehouse weapon caches.

Bettina

Bettina uses medium ammo and delivers high single-shot damage, functioning almost like a marksman AR at long mid-range.
It has slower fire cadence than auto rifles, but its accuracy lets it reward careful aiming and headshot play.
You can get Bettina by climbing and looting the upper floors of the Research & Administration towers, where its dedicated weapon crates spawn.

ARC Raiders Battle Rifles

Ferro

Ferro is a semi-automatic battle rifle that deals high per-shot damage, making it very effective at long range.
Its strong armor penetration allows it to perform well against armored ARC units when ammo is managed carefully.
You can get Ferro from combat-trial rewards issued by Tian Wen after completing boss-style encounters.

Renegade

Renegade is a lever-action battle rifle that trades some penetration for improved handling and more consistent mid-range control.
It has a low fire rate, but its recoil stability makes it ideal for deliberate, paced combat rather than spray fighting.
You can get Renegade by completing Lance’s late-midgame wall-spray taskline, which grants it as a guaranteed reward.

Aphelion

Aphelion is a marksman-hybrid battle rifle that excels at very long range and rewards precision over rapid fire.
It uses medium ammo and offers a high headshot damage multiplier, making it a favorite for skilled players in long-distance engagements.
You can get Aphelion from high-security weapon crates inside the Arrival Building or calibration terminals at Spaceport’s top floors.

ARC Raiders Submachine Guns

Stitcher

The Stitcher uses light ammo and has an extremely high fire rate, making it excellent for fast, aggressive close-range combat.
Its recoil can feel snappy, so attachments or crouch-firing are recommended for sustained control.
You can get Stitcher from small SMG lockers inside residential rooftops or light-security weapon drawers.

Bobcat

The Bobcat is a light-ammo SMG that offers higher mobility while firing, making it great for strafing and pushing in close fights.
It reloads quickly and performs best when you maintain movement to avoid damage while outputting pressure.
You can get Bobcat by looting SMG-marked crates inside Field Depot rooftops or completing aggressive explosive challenges for Apollo.

ARC Raiders Shotguns

Il Toro

The Il Toro is a pump-action shotgun that deals massive burst damage at point-blank range due to its tight pellet grouping.
It uses shotgun shells and delivers strong knockback, making it excellent for stopping rushing enemies.
You can get Il Toro from Field Depot heavy-weapon crates or apartment rooftop weapon stashes.

Vulcano I

Vulcano I is a semi-automatic shotgun that offers high burst DPS with a wider pellet spread than pump-actions.
It performs well up close but suffers from heavy range falloff, so you should pair it with a longer-range secondary.
You can get Vulcano I by looting shotgun crates inside tunnel checkpoints or Speranza-issued weapon trials.

Vulcano

The Vulcano is a semi-automatic shotgun that delivers devastating damage if all pellets land, making it one of the best short-range PvE weapons.
It has a faster follow-up cadence than Il Toro, allowing for more consistent burst windows without pump delay.
You can get the standard Vulcano by looting high-tier shotgun crates in Spaceport under-deck tunnels.

ARC Raiders Pistols

Hairpin

Hairpin uses light ammo and is extremely lightweight, making it excellent for mobility but weak in raw damage.
It has very poor armor penetration, so it is better used as a stealth or backup weapon than a primary.
You can get Hairpin by looting small pistol drawers inside trader shacks or mobility camps.

Burletta

Burletta is a semi-automatic light-ammo pistol that offers fast reload and decent accuracy in short-to-mid duels.
It deals better damage than Hairpin but still struggles against armored ARC enemies.
You can get Burletta by looting locker-room pistol trays inside warehouses or completing early tasks for Tian Wen.

Anvil

The Anvil uses medium ammo and hits extremely hard, functioning like a hand cannon rather than a standard pistol.
Its six-round cylinder allows for fast successive shots, but you must pace fire to manage recoil.
You can get Anvil by looting top-floor terminals at Control Tower or finishing lock-override jobs for Celeste.

Venator

Venator fires two bullets per pull, giving it very high burst damage if both rounds connect.
It uses medium ammo and has better armor effectiveness than light pistols, making it a strong sidearm for mixed combat.
You can get Venator by looting mid-tier weapon caches inside the Arrival Building.

ARC Raiders Light Machineguns

Torrente

Torrente is a heavy-ammo LMG built for suppression, with a very large magazine and extremely high sustained fire rate.
Its recoil is massive, so crouching or equipping recoil-reducing stocks is recommended.
You can get Torrente from industrial heavy-weapon caches or reinforced depot rooms in Spaceport.

ARC Raiders Sniper Rifles

Osprey

The Osprey is a bolt-action sniper that delivers very high damage at extreme range, making it a powerful opener in both PvE and PvP.
It has a built-in scope, allowing you to take stable, accurate shots without extra optics.
You can get Osprey from long-range weapon caches at Spaceport towers or reinforced radar rooftops.

Jupiter

Jupiter is a bolt-action heavy-ammo sniper that delivers massive single-shot damage and performs best at the longest engagement ranges.
It has a slow reload, so players must reposition or cover themselves between shots.
You can get Jupiter by looting the top floors of Control Tower or snowy ridge sniper lockers.

ARC Raiders Special Weapons

Equalizer

The Equalizer fires a continuous energy beam, meaning it has no bullet drop, but it does build heat instead of reloading like standard guns.
Its armor penetration is extremely high, making it one of the best weapons for melting plated ARC bosses when used with cover and positioning.
You can get Equalizer by looting calibration terminals at the highest Spaceport towers or finishing heavy combat challenges for Celeste.

Hullcracker

The Hullcracker is a grenade launcher that deals massive explosive damage, but it only detonates on ARC targets, so it cannot be used in PvP.
It is one of the fastest ways to shred armored PvE threats when ammo is prepared in advance.
You can get the Hullcracker by looting sealed heavy-weapon caches in industrial zones or completing late operations for Apollo.
