In ARC Raiders, one way for players to improve their strength and have a perfect gaming experience is to equip themselves with higher-level items and weapons. Most items can be found by scavenging on the map, and with a bit of luck, you might even find rare items.
ARC Raiders has many maps, and some very popular areas are frequently explored and looted by players. Because so many people are searching for these areas, competition between players not only reduces the chances of finding items but also increases the risk of accidentally dying and losing hard-earned loot during the struggle.
Many players are eager to find a safe and stable area where they can focus on looting. If you're also struggling with this problem, then this guide is for you!
Among the many maps, I personally find Buried City particularly interesting. The map's eerie and mysterious atmosphere showcases the decline of a city's civilization, giving Buried City a unique advantage and charm among the many maps available.
Buried City boasts many underrated loot spots, especially those rarely explored and little-known by other players. Looting in these locations offers both a higher drop rate and greater safety. You can safely enter and exit buildings without excessive worry about interference or competition from other players.
Therefore, when exploring Buried City, head to the best looting spots on the map. Here are a few must-visit spots:
1. Santa Maria Houses
If you've completed Digging Up Dirt mission, you'll be familiar with this area. Although these houses are in the center of Buried City, most players simply pass through while looting, missing the hidden loot within.
Next to the houses on the west side of Santa Maria Houses, there's a Weapon Case. This case has a chance to contain high-level weapons from ARC Raiders, such as Hullcracker and Equalizer, which will significantly boost your combat power.
Inside the house in the middle of the villa complex is a Security Locker containing two utility kits. These kits might spawn some rare Grenades.
Since Santa Maria Houses connects to several easily overlooked looting areas, it's often overlooked and rarely explored, making it an excellent looting spot.
2. Abandoned Highway Camp
If you haven't been here before, you'll need to climb onto the roof to reach this campsite. However, Abandoned Highway Camp itself is not what we should focus on; the most important thing is the big house next to it.
This house beneath Old Town Hatch is like a treasure trove; it's easy to enter without any effort, requiring no puzzles or specific keys. You can find numerous Weapon Cases, Medical Duffel Bags, and utility kits here.
Note that this house can only be entered from the north side. If you're unlucky enough to be on the south side, you'll have to jump in through a window. At the same time, because this place is very close to Old Town Hatch, it can greatly ensure that players can evacuate safely.
3. Red Tower
Red Tower is located on the east side of Buried City. If you've done Communication Hideout mission before, you've definitely been here.
Players can find a house filled with furniture to the right of Residential icon shown on the map. Many players simply search the first floor and leave, but the real loot is on the second floor of Red Tower. You can find a Security Locker here, two Weapon Cases above it, and even some other types of chests.
However, Red Tower is slightly more dangerous because it's surrounded by enemies, including a Bombardier. This is probably why many players don't linger here, missing out on such a wealth of resources.
4. Marano Station
Marano Station has a relatively high Weapon Case drop rate. Although it's on the western edge of the map, players can still obtain a considerable amount of loot here. Inside Marano Station, players can find up to two Weapon Cases, and possibly some other ARC Raiders items.
However, be aware that this location is relatively remote. If you're not familiar with the area, it's best to carry an Adrenaline Shot to ensure you have enough stamina.
Meanwhile, there's another Weapon Case near Train Station Hatch outside. So, if you're lucky, you can find three or even more weapons here.
5. Parking Garage and Galleria
Parking Garage and Galleria consists of two buildings located between Buried City Hospital and Space Travel. Both buildings have multiple floors, offering numerous places to loot.
For example, the upper level of Parking Garage appears spacious, but the basement on the lower level is a raider camp with abundant resources. The remaining buildings also have a chance to spawn Weapon Cases, making this a prime looting spot.
While this location, which doesn't require a key to find Weapon Cases, is a good choice, it reduces some hassle for players. However, be aware that high-value loot also exists around the buildings, which will attract other raiders.
Patrols will also be present nearby, so players must be more vigilant in this area compared to other zones.
These are five must-visit looting spots on Buried City Map. Santa Maria Houses, Abandoned Highway Camp, and Marano Station are relatively safe, offering loot opportunities without other distractions.
The houses in Red Tower, as well as Parking Garage and Galleria, are a bit more dangerous. Be careful not to be discovered by enemies or competitors while looting.
Many more loot areas like these will appear in the game. Use them to acquire ARC Raiders items you want and continuously improve your combat abilities!
