u4gm Arc Raiders Secret Vault Rare Loot Guide

[iiak32484]

If you have been grinding away in Arc Raiders and want to skip the usual slow climb, there’s a risky but tempting shortcut that players whisper about. It’s all about breaking into the Xeron Vault – a hidden, heavily guarded spot off the main map. Get inside and you’re staring at rare weapons, top-tier gear parts, and a stack of Fuel Rods that can change your squad’s future in one go. It’s not for the faint-hearted, but if you’ve got the nerve, this is the kind of run that can make you rich in ARC Raiders Coins and gear almost overnight.



Going in blind is a fast way to get wiped. You’ll want a squad that covers all bases – someone with a sniper for spotting and picking off threats from a distance, a heavy gunner packing an LMG and explosives for taking down ARC armor, and a support player lugging extra ammo and meds. EMP grenades are a must; without them, the vault’s turrets will shred you before you even start looting. And here’s the catch – you can’t open the vault without a Corrupted ARC Datakey. Those drop from ARC Commander units, so you’ll need to hunt one down first, which is a mission in itself.



Finding the vault is half the battle. It’s tucked away in the Oasis Shatterzone, buried under the wreckage of a collapsed Pinnacle communications tower. The area is crawling with ARC patrols and environmental hazards that’ll keep you on edge. When you reach the tower’s base, look for a blast door with faded yellow chevrons – that’s your entry point. Slot the Datakey into the console beside it, and brace yourself. The moment you start the unlock process, a distress signal goes out, pulling every ARC unit nearby straight to you. You’ll have about a minute and a half to hold them off before the door finally opens.



Inside, it’s a race against the clock. The vault’s split into multiple levels, each stacked with loot containers. The big prize sits in the middle – the Fuel Rods. Around them, you’ll find weapon cases with rare rifles and energy guns, plus crates stuffed with high-grade armor and mods. You don’t have all day; the second you step in, a timer starts ticking down. When it hits zero, elite ARC Sentinels flood in. Grab the Fuel Rods first, then whatever upgrades you can carry without slowing down. Hanging around too long is a sure way to get trapped and lose everything.



Getting out is where most squads fail. By the time you’re back on the surface, ARC forces will be swarming, with tank-class units joining the hunt. The run to the nearest extraction point turns into a desperate fight, ducking behind cover, burning through grenades and ammo, and shouting callouts to keep everyone alive. If you make it, your squad’s gear and resources will jump to a whole new level. If you don’t… well, there’s no consolation prize. That’s the gamble, and it’s what makes the Xeron Vault one of the most thrilling plays in the game – especially if you’re chasing rewards for your ARC Raiders Battle pass.
