How to get blueprints in ARC Raiders
A blueprint only counts once you extract with it. Then 1 click in Speranza turns it into a recipe.
- Loot the right containers. Raider containers hold the gun blueprints. Security Lockers carry better odds too.
- Break ARC Surveyors. Destroyed Surveyors can drop blueprints.
- Extract with it. The blueprint has to reach Speranza in your inventory.
- Pick Learn and Consume. Open your inventory in Speranza and select the blueprint. The item is used up and the recipe unlocks.
- Craft at the right station. The station level decides what you can build. The Gunsmith makes the guns.
| Source | What it gives |
|---|---|
| Raider containers | Gun and gun part blueprints |
| Security Lockers | Better blueprint odds |
| ARC Surveyors | A chance at a blueprint when destroyed |
| Trials | Blueprints among the rewards |
| Quests | Set blueprints for some quests |
| Research Station | Some blueprints, researched at the Outpost |

Map conditions and the 2.3.0 gun blueprints
Some blueprints only drop while a map condition is active. Live Update 2.3.0 on 27 October 2026 widened that pool.
6 gun blueprints now drop in any major map condition: 
Dolabra, 
Bobcat, 
Equalizer, 
Jupiter, 
Tempest and 
Vulcano. Embark lowered the chance of that pool slightly in the same patch.
| Gun blueprint | Where it drops |
|---|---|
| Dolabra | Any major map condition |
| Bobcat | Any major map condition |
| Equalizer | Any major map condition |
| Jupiter | Any major map condition |
| Tempest | Major map conditions only |
| Vulcano | Any major map condition |
 Aphelion | Stella Montis |
Check the map list for an active condition before you queue. Those raids are where the rare gun blueprints sit.
Which of these guns is worth the hunt sits on our ARC Raiders weapon tier list.
Learning a blueprint and crafting the item
Learn and Consume is final. The blueprint item is gone and the recipe stays on your Raider.
- Learned blueprints show a check mark. A copy you already learned cannot be consumed again.
- The station gates the craft. A learned recipe still needs its station at a high enough level.
- The Gunsmith builds weapons. Level it up to craft the better guns you learned.
- The Research Station sits in the Outpost. Frozen Trail 2.0 added it on 8 October 2026. It researches some blueprints.
Station upgrades cost crafting parts such as Metal Parts and Fabric. Coins pay for the rest of your kit: see our ARC Raiders coins guide.
See ARC Raiders services →Every ARC Raiders service sits on 1 page, from coins to weapons to station leveling.
A blueprint farm plan
Blueprint drops are random. A plan raises how many rolls you get per hour.
- Queue into map conditions. They hold the 6 gun blueprints from 2.3.0.
- Open every Raider container on the route. They carry the gun blueprints.
- Take Security Lockers when you pass them. Their odds beat a plain crate.
- Finish your Trials. Their rewards include blueprints.
- Extract early with a rare find. A blueprint in your bag is worth more than 1 more room.
Skill points that help you loot and carry sit on our ARC Raiders builds guide.
