ARC Raiders: Buried City Town Hall Loot Pattern Exposed - How to Farm Rare Blueprints and Epic Weapons in Night Raid?
The loot drops in ARC Raiders Buried City Town Hall room seem to follow a pattern. A few days ago, I stumbled upon this room and something very strange happened: I found more than one rare blueprint in each container, including VITA blueprint I'd always wanted. As I continued looting, I even found some epic weapons.
This single looting session yielded me items worth nearly 100,000. After that, I tried entering Town Hall room again a few times during night raids. While the loot was far less than before, at least I had weapons as a safety net.
This suggests that the item spawns in Town Hall room seem to follow a pattern. For example, there's a limit to the number of Tier 3 weapons that can spawn, and the spawn count doesn't vary much each time.
After accumulating a large number of keys, I decided to explore more thoroughly. Here are my conclusions.
Resource Generation
Specifically, during night raids, we can usually obtain at least three to four Tier 3 weapons; I haven't exceeded that number yet. I've decided to try a few more times, as this is a fairly large key room.
In my experience, the containers that spawn each time look pretty much the same. If you're lucky, you might get a regular container; with even better luck, you might find a suitcase or a grenade crate. Sometimes, a weapon crate and a grenade crate will spawn at the same time. This time we found a grenade crate with an initial value of 19,000.
Unsurprisingly, it was filled with all sorts of grenades. We also found an Osprey 3 in the suitcase. From my experience, the key room in City Hall usually spawns three to four Tier 4 weapons-whether it's a night raid or a Hurricane assault, the situation is very similar. I think the spawn patterns for these two modes are very similar.
Fixed Spawn Point - Hurricane Assault
ARC Raiders Buried City Town Hall has three floors, each with its own specific function.
The first-floor lobby contains Grenade Cases and Chests of Drawers; the second floor has Medical Bags, Drawers, and a refrigerator; and the third floor has Weapon Cases, Security Breach Lockers, Red Industrial Cabinets, Breachable Computer Cabinets, and Chests of Drawers again.
Items occasionally appear on chairs in the rooms, a more common occurrence during night raids than daytime raids. While containers rarely spawn in certain locations, the types of items they contain are generally similar. The medkit, however, frequently appears in the same spot.
Next, enter the main room on the first floor. The container rarely spawns, but its contents are generally the same. Items can occasionally be found on the table; this time I got a Wolfpack, which was quite a good find.
As for the drawers, they are filled with various items, including junk, but you might also find medical supplies or grenades. Overall, the most valuable ARC Raiders Items you can find here are usually Wolfpacks, Noisemakers, VA sprays, and VA injections.
If your backpack is full, you'll have to deal with lower-value items, usually ammunition.
Therefore, I recommend bringing a Mark 2 pickup truck or a Mark II pickup truck with caution, so you can get more valuable items. If possible, it's best to only carry one low-value item, like a water bottle, which you can discard after finding a weapon.
I've already found my second level 3 weapon on the second floor of Buried City Town Hall, so I estimate I can find two more.
Upstairs, there are more containers that might spawn; occasionally you can find items here, and if you're lucky, even weapons. This room doesn't usually spawn much, but the spawn rate is much higher during night raids and Hurricane mode.
Here I found another Wolfpack, next to a medium shield, but unfortunately I couldn't pick it up, so I'm going to pick up a piece of durable cloth. Most of the items in this room are here, plus a small grenade trap. As you can see, no matter how you farm, the loot is roughly the same each time.
You'll get a lot of trinkets, a lot of grenades, a lot of medical supplies, and frankly, a lot of junk too. The most valuable items are three to four Tier 4 weapons, and with good luck, you might even get three to four purple weapons. Next most valuable are epic healing items and grenades.
It's worth noting that I saw an ammo box and a volcano-themed weapon case here. However, neither is particularly valuable; weapon cases found in ARC Raiders loot room might be more valuable. A second weapon case will also spawn here, potentially allowing you to get a third Tier 3 weapon.
Night Raid
In the normal Town Hall loot pool, Tier 4 weapons are already rare drops. In Night Raid, the spawn rate of high-tier weapons increases significantly.
In ARC Raiders weapon tier system, Tempest and Anvil are both top-tier S-class weapons. Tempest is considered one of the best assault rifles by players, tied for S-class with Bettina, but due to its rarity and high crafting requirements, it's usually used by experienced players.
Anvil is a hand cannon-type pistol that uses heavy ammunition, known for its high single-shot damage and relatively low crafting cost. It's effective against ARC bots and also suitable for targeting enemy players.
These high-value weapons are inherently difficult to obtain, and night raids are the best time to search for them. Guides indicate that City Hall not only spawns high-tier weapons like Tempest, Anvil, and Wolfpack during night raids, but also significantly increases the spawn rate of rare blueprints.
For example, Looting Mk.3 (Survivor), an epic backpack-type Augments ARC Raiders Blueprint, typically only appears in high-tier indoor loot pools during night raids, and City Hall is one of the high-priority areas where it might spawn.
What about daytime raids? I've tried it, and it consistently yields between 60,000 and 80,000 damage per run, but it's far less profitable than Hurricane or night raids; you'll likely only find level 2 weapons at most.
Therefore, if you're planning to scavenge for supplies in the key room of Buried City Hall in ARC Raiders, it's best to choose Hurricane mode or a night raid. This will result in a much richer loot reward, and you might even find a rare blueprint like I did.
