Best PvE Farming Builds in ARC Raiders

Role GuidePatch v1.29

PvE Farming builds focus on sustained DPS against ARC enemies, high magazine capacity for extended fights, and utility items for maximum loot extraction. Speed and efficiency are the priorities.

Top Weapons for This Role

#1 — Tempest (Assault Rifle · Medium · 367 DPS)

Tempest II with extended medium mag (31 rounds), angled grip, and scanner augment is the ultimate PvE farming build. Highest AR DPS at 367 with the Scanner revealing loot and enemies through walls.

#2 — Hullcracker (Special · Launcher · 2030 DPS)

Hullcracker I deals 100 damage with 2030 DPS against ARC enemies. Its explosives only detonate against ARC, making it a PvE-specific powerhouse. 5-round mag with fast 20.3 fire rate.

#3 — Torrente (LMG · Medium · 466.4 DPS)

Torrente III with 80-round magazine provides the largest sustained fire capacity for PvE. Crouch for pinpoint accuracy. Excellent for clearing rooms of ARC enemies without reloading.

#4 — Stitcher (SMG · Light · 317.1 DPS)

Stitcher I at only 800c is the budget PvE option. Decent 317.1 DPS and light weight (5kg) leaves plenty of carry capacity for loot.
