ARC Raiders Players Are Farming Insane Loot Thanks to This Overlooked Mechanic A simple trick hidden in the Survivability skill tree is letting smart raiders walk away with pink-tier loot — but probably not for long
While most players spend their time battling ARCs, getting ambushed by campers, or searching empty containers, there’s a much easier way to walk away loaded: Security Breaches.
These rare containers spawn across every map, and they’re locked by default unless you’ve upgraded a specific trait in your Survivability skill tree. Once unlocked, they’re your ticket to guaranteed profit.
Each Security Breach has an excellent chance of dropping one or more pink-tier (epic) weapons, which can sell for tens of thousands of in-game funds. These funds can then be reinvested into better gear, mods, or — most importantly — Raider Hatch Keys.
🔐 How Security Breaches Work
Here’s what makes this mechanic so powerful:
- Security Breaches are scattered throughout every zone topside.
- You can only open them by leveling up the Security Access trait under Survivability.
- Once opened, they consistently drop high-value items that drastically speed up your progression.
The best part? Most players are ignoring them entirely because they’ve invested skill points elsewhere — usually into Mobility. That means these containers are yours for the taking.
🚀 Why Raider Hatches Make This Even Better
Pairing Security Breaches with Raider Hatches creates one of the most broken loot loops in the game right now.
Unlike elevators or subway extractions — which leave you exposed and hunted — Raider Hatches let you extract instantly and safely once you have a Hatch Key from Shani.
If you consistently loot Security Breaches and sell pink weapons:
- You’ll easily afford unlimited Hatch Keys.
- You can skip dangerous extractions altogether.
- You’ll build wealth and gear faster than almost anyone else.
In short, this method lets you farm loot with minimal risk, staying off the radar of both raiders and ARCs.
⚠️ Get It Before It’s Gone
This strategy is so effective that it’s almost certainly going to catch the developers’ attention. Once it becomes widespread, expect a nerf — whether it’s a drop-rate adjustment, extraction tweak, or skill rework.
Until then, if you’ve got the right skills unlocked, start hunting for those Security Breach containers and cash in before the window closes.
💬 Final Tip
Keep quiet about your newfound fortune — the fewer people know about it, the longer it stays profitable. So, grab your gear, crack some containers, and enjoy your pink-tier payday while it lasts.
