Arc Raiders Blueprint Tier List: Which BPs Are Worth Your Coins

Blueprints are the backbone of Arc Raiders progression, but with limited Coins and even more limited raid time, you can't afford to unlock the wrong ones. Here's every weapon and gadget BP ranked by cost-to-power ratio as of the current patch.

S-Tier — Unlock Immediately

Arc Pulse Rifle — The current meta king. High DPS, manageable recoil, scales well into late extraction zones. If you unlock nothing else, unlock this.

Magneto Shotgun — Best close-quarters damage in the game. Essential for tunnel extractions.

Disruption Grenade — Disables ARC mechs for 4 seconds. Trivialises encounters that would otherwise kill a squad.

A-Tier — Strong Secondary Unlocks

Railgun Sniper — Niche but dominant in open zones. Great for solo players.

Tactical Drone — Information advantage that wins close extraction races.

B-Tier — Situational

Burst SMG, Frag Launcher, Shield Generator — Useful in specific squad compositions but not efficient as first unlocks.

C / Skip

Everything else in the current roster is either outclassed or requires a playstyle commitment (e.g. stealth builds) that doesn't work in public extraction servers.
