There are multiple ways to get weapons in Arc Raiders, similar to gadgets, trinkets, or other items. When you have checked the list above and settled on a weapon or weapons, you can obtain them by the following methods.

Search Loot Boxes, Caches, and Locked Rooms

Arc Raiders has randomized loot scattered around its world, and it is completely possible to find the weapon of your choice for absolutely free as loot. For that, you must go on a raid and look around in various boxes and caches. Of course, we encourage you to venture into more bootable areas on your own and search everything you can find.

However, remember that normal caches generally have level 1 and common-uncommon items. If you want something better, then you must go to the Secret Rooms or areas with high risk and high-tier loot. Alternatively, you can also try delivering field crates to field depots in the hopes of obtaining the weapon you want.

Crafting the Weapon

In Arc Raiders, you can craft weapons through the Weapon Crafting Bench. However, for that, you will need to find blueprints. With that said, you can check various lockers, chests, and other areas for loot. If the blueprint you find is of the epic or better rarity, then be sure to check for its required level of crafting bench. Once you acquire the level of the crafting bench required, the blueprint will unlock the weapon permanently, and you can craft it anytime you want.

Buy the Weapon from Traders

If you are tired of searching for weapons for no result or cannot get your hands on the needed material for its blueprints, money can make your problems go away. Yes, it is certainly possible to buy weapons, gadgets, and other items from traders in Arc Raiders. For that, all you have to do is visit the Trader’s shop, find what you are looking for, and simply pay to get it. However, remember that traders won’t have every weapon in the game.
