A purple everytime, plus blue weapons, and rare upgrade materials.
Last night I was wandering around the Buried City, plundering sand-filled houses and trying my best to avoid getting mowed down by that minigun-toting Bastion, when I happened upon the best early loot farm I’ve found so far in Arc Raiders. Considering I’m level 20 and already prepping an expedition to send off my Raider to a nice farm upstate, you can take my word for it that this place is extremely lucrative.
And the best part? It’s on the outskirts of the Buried City rather than the highly contested centre of the town, it’s close to a Raider Hatch and a subway station for fast exfil, and it doesn’t require a key, or fighting past a load of Arc enemies to access it. A little oasis in the apocalypse. Weirdly, all you have to do is breach a single door and step into a small room with four lootable containers.
So where is this golden loot spot: Marano Station. You’ll have to head here for the Market Correction quest, but otherwise, it’s a pretty uninhabited area of the map, a little ways off to the side of the Marano Park in the north where the Bastion likes to hang out.
