ARC INTEL STAFF
The team behind the intel
WHO WE ARE
ARC Raiders Intel is built and maintained by a small team of dedicated players who have been in the field since ARC Raiders first opened its doors during the closed beta. Between us we have logged over 500 hours of combined playtime. We have been mapping every container spawn, documenting every loot table, and testing every combat strategy we publish.
We started this project because the information we needed didn't exist in one place. Drop rates were scattered across Discord threads. Container locations lived in blurry screenshots. Route advice was buried in hour-long YouTube VODs. We built ARC Intel to solve that - a single, fast, searchable source of truth for every item, container, and tactic in the game.
Every guide you read here is written from first-hand experience. Every container write-up is verified in-game. Every spawn pin on the interactive map is placed from footage we captured ourselves. When the game updates, we update. When new zones drop, we're in them on day one, running the same loops we'll eventually publish so you don't have to figure it out blind.
500+ Hours
Combined playtime across the team. We've been playing since the early access beta, through every major update and meta shift.
Every Map Covered
Dam, Buried City, Blue Gate, Spaceport, Riven Tides: we've mapped every floor of every deployment zone in the game.
20+ Guides
In-depth walkthroughs, tier lists, boss strategies, and farming routes. All written and verified by our team.
Community-Driven
We review player-submitted data, cross-reference patch notes, and keep every page current so you're never working with stale intel.
// Our Approach
We don't publish anything we haven't tested ourselves. If a guide says "the Turbine spawns between 16 and 13 minutes," it's because we timed it across dozens of sessions. If a container page says "found in Dam and Spaceport," it's because we've looted it in both zones on camera.
ARC Raiders is a live service game that changes with every patch. We treat our content the same way, as living documents that get updated whenever the meta shifts. Outdated information gets flagged, corrected, or rewritten. We'd rather take a page down than leave wrong data up.
If you spot something that's off - a container we missed, a drop rate that's changed, a strategy that no longer works after a patch - let us know. The best intel comes from the community, and every correction makes the site better for everyone.
