ARC Raiders all Medical Supplies

Medical loot spawns often in metro station lockers, military outpost cabinets, crashed drone supply crates, and dedicated medical rooms in Spaceport, Buried City Hospital, and Dam research buildings.

Healing Items:

• Bandage, Herbal Bandage, Sterilized Bandage – gradual heals (Sterilized is strongest)
• Vita Shot – big instant heal
• Vita Spray – long sustained heal

Revive: Defibrillator revives teammates + restores health.

Support: Shield Rechargers refill portable shields (regular = gradual, Surge = instant). Adrenaline Shot restores stamina and boosts regen.

Tips: Equip heals in quick-use slots. Post-raid health refills automatically; shields need manual recharge. Save Vita items for emergencies. Carry at least one Defibrillator in squads.

ARC Raiders All Keys

Keys in ARC Raiders are special items used to unlock restricted areas, sealed loot rooms, supply depots, and quest-specific locations. They are usually obtained from quests, high-tier loot zones, mech drops, or trader rewards. Each key opens a specific facility or structure, giving access to rare gear, crafting materials, or mission objectives.

ARC Raiders all Security Breaches locations

What Security Breach Lockers Are

Security Breach lockers are special locked containers that require the Security Breach skill from the Survival skill tree (a late unlock). These containers contain high-tier weapons, blueprints, rare crafting materials, and valuable loot. The skill requires significant investment in Survival points to unlock.

Tips for Breach Farming

• Unlock Security Breach in the Survival tree before farming lockers.
• Some locker zones are key-locked areas requiring specific access items.
• High-tier loot attracts both ARC AI and players, so plan routes and exit paths.

ARC Raiders Classes Explained

ARC Raiders does not use traditional fixed classes like “Medic,” “Sniper,” or “Tank.” Instead, your role or playstyle is defined by your loadout and skill tree choices. You build your character using a flexible system rather than selecting a preset class at the start.

How Roles Are Defined

• Skill Tree Builds: You spend experience points in three main skill branches—Conditioning, Mobility, and Survival—to tailor your Raider’s strengths.
  • Conditioning improves endurance, toughness, and weight handling.
  • Mobility boosts stamina, movement efficiency, and traversal options.
  • Survival enhances crafting, loot efficiency, and carry capacity.
• Loadout Choices: Armor, weapons, gadgets, and consumables further shape how you play—whether you favor stealth, combat, looting, or support.

Playstyle Archetypes

While not strict classes, common playstyles emerge from combinations of skills and gear:

• Scout / Runner: Focused on speed and reconnaissance
• Loot Specialist: Gear and skills that maximize carry capacity and container access
• Combat-Focused Raider: Balanced movement and endurance for direct engagements
• Support / Tank: Builds with durability and team utility

Arc Raiders Classes Explained: It’s a Tad Different!

Arc Raiders goes beyond traditional classes with a unique, skill-tree and role customization approach that focuses on player adaptability and strategic gameplay.
