Extracting with your loot is one of the key mechanics of ARC Raiders, but if you fail an extraction, you lose all your loot. If you have something of value, you would have utilized the Safe Pocket feature in your inventory. Since you only get one slot, it will not be enough as you progress through the game. This guide explains how to increase the number of Safe Pocket slots in ARC Raiders.
Unlocking Extra Safe Pocket Slots in ARC Raiders
You need to obtain the Looting Mk. 2 and Looting Mk. 3 Augments to increase your inventory space, which further give you extra Safe Pocket slots. There are three ways to obtain Looting Mk. Augments can be obtained through scavenging, purchasing from Lance, or crafting.
Craft Looting Mk. Augments
If you choose the crafting method, you must upgrade your Gear Bench to levels 2 and 3. Then, check the crafting section to find the two Augment blueprints required. The following are all the components required to craft Looting Mk. 2 and Looting Mk. 3.
Looting Mk.2
- Requirement: Gear Bench . Lv 2
- 2x Electrical Components
- 3x Magnet
Looting Mk.3
- Requirement: Gear Bench . Lv 3
- 2x Advanced Electrical Components
- 3x Processor
Purchase from Lance
The second method to obtain these augments is to visit Lance at the Clinic and purchase them from his store. He will sell you the Looting Mk. 2 Augment for 6,000 credits. You can also purchase the lower level of this Augment, Looting Mk. 1, for 1,920 credits. However, Looting Mk. 1 only offers one Safe Pocket slot, so players should save up and purchase the second tier of this upgrade.
Raids
Scavenging during raids is another way to get Augments, but obtaining the Looting Mk. 2 and 3 this way is quite rare. You are better off crafting them or purchasing them from Lance, as there are no fixed spawn points for them.
How to Use the Looting Mk. 2 and Looting Mk. 3 Augments
Once you have obtained either the Looting Mk. 2 or Looting Mk. 3, equip them in your Loadout slot from your stash. You will notice that you now have extra Safe Pocket slots, with the Mk. 2 offering one extra slot and the Mk. 3 offering two slots. You cannot equip two augments at the same time, so you need to switch them out for the one you require.
