ARC RAIDERS / GUIDE 03
Good loot management is not about collecting everything. Knowing which item unlocks your next upgrade makes every free backpack slot more valuable.
01. Make a Shopping ListCheck your next quest and bench upgrade. Focus on two or three missing materials per run, and use that list to decide what to leave behind when your bag fills. |
02. Check the Item’s UsesA Hornet Driver, for example, can serve Gear Bench upgrades and quests. Being sellable does not automatically make an item a good sale for your current progression. |
03. Read the Recycling OutputRecycling at home and salvaging in the field can produce different results. Inspect the output before confirming so you do not turn a needed component into less useful materials. |
04. Consider Space and WeightWhen your bag fills, look beyond rarity color. Compare quest value, replacement difficulty, and carrying weight. Move into cover before reorganizing or dropping excess loot. |
05. Reset Your Stash After Each RunSet aside quest items, keep materials you intend to use, and deal with genuine surplus. Leave space for the next raid’s loot before deploying again. |
Avoid Keeping EverythingA practical approach is to separate near-term objectives, routine supplies, and surplus. Avoid tying up your entire stash for an upgrade you have not yet planned. |
Version Note(Item uses can change with new quests and projects. Base decisions on current needs rather than a permanent “sell everything” list.) |
