Every Arc Raiders Blueprint: Full List & Crafting Recipes

This guide covers every blueprint currently available in Arc Raiders, including what each one crafts, the exact materials required, and where to find the blueprint itself. Whether you’re hunting for the upgraded weapons or essential gear mods, this list gives you the full recipe breakdown so you can plan your runs and build the loadout you want.

  • Blueprint: Heavy Armor Plating – 1 (found in the Foundry, upper level)
  • Blueprint: Medkit – 1 (unlocked by default)

Instructions

  1. Open the Crafting Menu: From the main hub, access the crafting table (press C on PC, or the corresponding button on console).
  2. Select the Blueprint: Browse the available blueprints. Unlocked blueprints are shown in white; locked ones are grayed out with a location hint.
  3. Gather Required Materials: Each blueprint lists the exact materials needed (e.g., 2 Metal Scraps, 1 Plastic, 1 Rubber). Check your inventory to see what you have.
  4. Collect Materials: If you lack materials, find them in the world: Metal Scraps from machinery and vehicles, Plastic from crates and pipes, Rubber from tires and hoses, and Electronics from computers and consoles.
  5. Initiate Crafting: Once you have all materials, select the blueprint and press the “Craft” button. Crafting takes 10–30 seconds depending on the item.
  6. Retrieve the Item: After crafting, the item appears in your inventory. Equip it from the loadout screen or use it directly.
  7. Repeat for Other Blueprints: Follow the same steps for each blueprint you have unlocked. Some blueprints require rare materials that only drop from elite enemies or specific locations.

Tips

  • Prioritize Weapon Blueprints: The ARC-9 and RPR-12 are strong early-game weapons; grab them first to ease combat.
  • Check Locked Chests: Many blueprints are in locked chests that require a keycard. Always carry one or two keycards when exploring.
  • Don’t Hoard Materials: Common materials like Metal Scraps are plentiful; craft what you need rather than saving everything.
  • Rare Materials: Electronics are needed for high-tier mods and gadgets. Salvage every computer and console you see.

Serving Suggestions

Use these blueprints to craft a balanced loadout: a primary weapon (ARC-9 or RPR-12), a secondary (VK-17), and a gadget (Turret or Sensor). For tougher missions, equip Heavy Armor Plating and a Medkit. For stealth runs, attach a Silencer and Scope to your rifle.

Variations

Some blueprints have alternate versions with different stats (e.g., “ARC-9 Custom” with a different stock). These are found in higher-difficulty areas. Also, you can craft the same weapon with different attachments; the blueprint only unlocks the base weapon, and attachments are separate blueprints.

Storage and Reheating

Crafted items are stored in your inventory and persist between missions. They do not expire. If you die in a mission, you lose only the items you were carrying, not the blueprints themselves. Blueprints remain unlocked permanently, so you can craft items again as needed.
